Thai Song #1

When a soul like mine

comes back to the place

where she belongs

when all it takes

to be home

is a kind word

When a heart so big

loves the people here

when all that matters

to be home

is a loving hand

When a mind as brilliant

comes to add to the music

of her people unconditionally

when all that is needed

to be home

is someone to listen

When that does not happen

when people keep her out

for fear or anger or frustration

then all that is needed

to be home

is to be there …

Nice pacing of the stanzas, there is a certain rhythm as it advances. The simplicity of what is needed to feel home is engaging. At times I also feel that such small details is all that is needed, and at times I feel like things are way too complicated unfortunately
