.

Philly then New York,

Arizona, Alaska

and Argentina.

.

Now it’s New Hampshire

and my home is everywhere

and nowhere at once.

.

This bright green landscape

blurry with the pounding rain -

“I’m Coming Home” plays.

.

I miss everyone,

I miss everywhere even

the place I’m standing.

.

My neighbor’s red roof

these puffs of Hydrangea -

Oh, how familiar!

Her teacher tells me,

“She shares her voice with music.”

The shy princess sings.

singing nursery rhymes,

looking out at too tall trees -

on the snow covered trail

singing her own song
