The Forgotten Garden
penbyzee.wordpress.com...
In the fast-paced pursuit of material success, it’s easy to leave behind the roots that nurtured us. The Forgotten Garden is a heartfelt reflection on my journey away from my birthplace in India—a vibrant town rich with memories of childhood laughter and simple joys. Through this poem, I explore the consequences of neglecting my home soil for the allure of distant lands and the hope of returning one day to revive both the garden and the bond with my origins. This is a story of renewal, wisdom, and rediscovering where the heart truly belongs.
