Restlessness settles fast In these bones longing For distant lands. Gypsy blood boils in my veins. Wanderlust has become my name. Wish my actions spoke louder than these Words I spout. My skin, itching to scratch, How it longs to shout. *****kynder Across the gateway of my heart, I wrote "No Thoroughfare!!" But love came laughing by and Cried "I enter everywhere!!!"

Kynder...I really identify with this. I too have wanderlust. Go...fly...find those adventures you seek..before it's too late. Hardrock |

Yes. I've got that too! Except I don't want to travel: I want to move somewhere else. The Germans have a word for this (Fernweh), an English equivalent would be "Farsick" (as opposed to homesick), sounds daft, doesn't it? Enjoyed your poem a lot!

Oh another great one. Me too, I always long to be somewhere I'm not. Always..With me its not the act of traveling, but the being in a different place that I crave. Great stuff, obviously making us think. "If a man moves you to feel like a woman, the least you can do is let him." Merrit Malloy |

Oh this sure touches that place within myself, I always had a reason not to "leave home" but the dream is there!! Very well put, and if you can, do it while you can!!! Very good writing |

Nice peom. I think all of us have that urge to wander. Some feel it and act while others only keep it locked inside. Keep it up. |
