Beyond The Farm
As you pack your bags and say goodbye
Leaving home for new adventure in the sky
Remember that this is not the end
But the beginning of an adventure with no end
You`ll meet new friends and learn new things
Experience life in ways you`ve never seen
And as you experience the world beyond
You`ll come to find that of this life you`re awfully fond
While it may be tough to walk away
You may feel alone or that you`ve gone astray
Remember that you are not alone
And that you will always have a seat at the table when you come back home
So embrace this new chapter with open arms
For there is nothing more exciting than the journey that awaits beyond the farm.

I live on a farm with my wonderful family and am moving 8 hours away for college in the fall. I wrote this poem from the perspective of my mother.
