What is home? 

An original poem. 

I recite; I wonder to see four walls arise from the ground to protect me from ills and threats. 

A home is where I can give birth to my free self. Home, a mother’s arm, cradle my soul with tenderness. 

Home grounds my feet when I jump with triumph and cushion my head when I cry with sorrow. 

That’s why I simply utter, “I want to go home,” in any circumstances.
