The Nomad, Antibes, 2020. Photography by Gautier
The Nomad of Antibes
Like the Nomad
Looking out to sea I contemplate
Head in the cloud, illuminated at night,
I play with the seasons
I live in the moment
Like the Nomad
I crossed the ocean
Now visiting my motherland
Why ever declare one is yours
Why not be a citizen of the world
Like The Nomad
I am growing on experiences,
Rather than collecting them as trophies,
I don’t have shelves anymore
I left my belongings
Like the Nomad
There is no frontier I can’t cross
The colorful facades are from another time
Blue sails are scribbling the sea
Children play on the street
Like the Nomad
I stand still
Paradox of this time
By order of law we live in lockdown
Some are reminded of the past
Like the Nomad
I am free
Poem by Isabelle Gautier. Sabbatical/Lockdown2 in France. Dec 2020, Antibes
