To Wander: A 시조 Poem

    To Wander: A 시조 1 Poem

    By Nimi Vachharajani, a first-year ETA

    In the cold I found myself

    in a land far from all I’d known.

    Budding leaves inspired hope,

    cherry blossoms evoked rebirth.

    Summer storms washed away the hurt.

    Is to wander

    to find home?
