I would never thought to
miss the kookaburra
woke me up at 5am
but I do today
along with other things
like
watching the fish swimming
in the water hyancinth filled
inground pond
reading by the crackling fire
under the shade cloth
the smell of lavender, rosemary,
basil and sage from the garden
Sunday roast
and the laughter
once a family gathering brought
although
they are not the things
made me feel like home
but today
just today
I do miss
them

And some context, I have recently sold my house and moved into a rental apartment. So i missed the house and the surroundings even the noisy kookaburras.

I would miss my home, too. But there’s new homes and birds awaiting.

My noisy birds are turkeys and crows. They’re very annoying.
