Poetry: Left behind

by Clarkson Wroe

Created on: February 28, 2009

Erasmus Year




She breathed the smells,

Of Paris

Oil floating on the Seine,

And rose petals, from

The gardens of, Notre Dame

And she sipped her Starbucks

Coffee and she read her Artaud

And she thought of home and

Missed it,

Not at all




Erasmus year

In the spirit of French May'

Whilst home in native Bournemouth

On Enterprise Way, her mother,

Cleans offices,

Missing her daughter, as if

In grief
