Writing with Gibran -Traveller - 28 August, 2014

Today's post on Carpe Diem Haiku Kai dedicated to "Sea and Foam" by Khalil Gibran is a fascinating post on traveller par excellance, nomads.  I would really rccomend you take a look at Chèvrefeuille's creation. Magnificent!

[...] "A traveler am I and a navigator, and every day I discover a new region within my soul". [...] "Sea and Foam"


a new journey
along the roads of God's Creation
seeking the truth within

seeking the truth within
the road like the Honeysuckle (*) bush
a new journey
© Chèvrefeuille


I've waited too long
the road calls to me .. come home
 endless winding trails

one step at a time
the road leads the traveller
unto herself

time to pack her bags
her nomadic soul calls
the trail - her home

an illusion
the traveller never remains
no roots to hold her down

    fleeting roots
    only in movements
    she can grow

      butterflies rejoice
      climbing along the old walls
      rambling rose

    I like this series Georgia. It has a feel in which the road is both a comforter and a tormentor. The journey is everything ....

    Walking the road less travelled - the inner journey becomes the most important one

    Lovely, Georgia...the difficult life and yet the only life that is called home.

      Thanks Cher ... there are some difficulties one has grown accustomed to ... like being a nomad.

    The call of the heart of a nomad... right?

    Exactly ... I was born in a military family and we changed homes at least once every two or three years ... until I was 45, though no longer with my family, I continued to globe trot ... it's been wonderful to plant roots, but sometimes the road still calls.
