After the Parade (English Sonnet)

This time an English sonnet with a poem set in Spain

By Some GuyPublished 4 years ago 1 min read

The Andalusian heat reigns down on me

Another morning with breakfast in Spain

Flapping my wings once more feeling so free

feeling for once weightless within my brain

Listening to Björk as the world goes by

My next destination already planned

Home where my mother cooks me Shepard's pie

I loved Spain but I miss my homeland

These past three months have felt like a parade

always a party but always busy

finding my place, I always felt delayed

But this parade made me feel less dizzy

No need to think extracurricular

My place is nowhere in particular

inspirational

About the Creator

Some Guy

I kinda suck at writing but I enjoy it

Anyway, here's a dumb little haiku:

The gunslinger draws

His opponent does the same

oh dear, they both died
