Taking a Trip

Leaving home to take a trip

Invites a lot of stress

For whether things go just as planned 

Is anybody’s guess.


Within your comfort zone you know

The rules and the routines,

The details all at your command

With few surprising scenes.


Yet out of bounds all bets are off 

And so much can go wrong,

As unfamiliar routes demand

The proof that you belong.


It’s easier, of course, to stay

At home, without a doubt,

But there are times a different land

Is worth the getting out.
