Good bye Hometown

Good bye family and friends. Good bye carefreeness of childhood. Good bye to the scent of the sea, the gossiping of the waves, the tenderness of the sand and the danger of the jellyfish. Good bye chai, with the beige look, with the taste of spices and the conversation that you induce. Good bye mountains, standing tall, looking on our shoulders obstructing development. Good bye fertile land, with the water canals and the lemon smell and nourishment that you provide to the people of the land. Good Bye hometown.
The mountains cause rain that creates a lake that create trees.

  1. Dear Unknown Researcher! Your beautiful words are powerful. They make me feel the connection you have with your hometown. It is beautiful place with its "gossiping waves" and tender sand. That you have mountains that look on your shoulders almost like parents--how lucky you have been to live here.

    You engage many of the senses of sound and taste....And the caption you wrote for the photo here is fun, yet at the same time a causal chain...I wonder if you are a part of this causal chain--are you?
