VOICE of the Student

Mexico

Posted

The truck rumbles alive

Growling like a beast

It flies off into the night

Where will it go?

 

The long winding road

Barreling down the plains

Flying up and around the

mountains

Two different worlds

Two cultures, Two communities

Separated by one long wall

Excitement wells inside of me

Coasting into the driveway

The beast rumbles off to sleep

A singular light shines through a

grated window

Inside a family shares a meal

Made from scratch, the aroma fills the air

Roosters call

The church bell rings

Cows moo

Goats bellow

Tractors leave

There is peace

There is calm

There is happiness

It's time to go

Happiness turns to sadness

I say goodbye

My family tells me to return

I promised i would

But i didn’t know that would be the last time I would see them
