London & Jerusalem

for R

You told me of your love for London
and I, of mine for Jerusalem.
And we speak of our second homes
and our first loves,
and how those memories
should be left for the archaeologists,
and how we must for the time being
carefully avoid the subject
each of the other
like diplomats
in London or Jerusalem
busily seeking
positive signs,
in one and the other
or those things
we love elsewhere
and wish we could have
here at home.


from Voices Israel Vol. 20 (1992), p. 35

The grass is greener on the other side and nostalgic is our lesser guide.
