On An Open Top Bus is Were I Shall Be

Teddy.15

 

O’ London I miss you

you’re always in my dreams

and when I'm down hearted

 bursting at the seams

I think of your heart

where fair I do roam

until such time

my heart will come home.

    How memories of places we have lived can bring back emotions. Yet I found that I can never go home again for upon my return my home has changed and no longer is home to me. A most lovely write of longing for home put so elegantly in flowing poetry with good rhyme. Loved it

      If I tell you I keep my laptop in my kitchen and the other day I was looking through prime videos and I found four weddings and a funeral, well it's been on constant as it has always been one of my fave films, my family do not understand why I love it so much especially Henry because he is only young, but it presents my entire life of London, it's exactly how I remember life, the humour and tragedy so yes, always brings back memories, I was born in London but much like you have two homes, and I'm so very proud always and yes sometimes I'm so homesick it hurts. Thank you dearest sorrenbarret I feel so very lucky to be able to share my thoughts in words with you dear Poet. 🌹

        the most important thing Teddy, is your heart still belongs to London, no matter where you are;
        and your words show how much London misses you also....x
