Travel to the place
Where mind set to peace,
No one can see,
Feel us free.
Travel to the place
Where we can breathe,
Fill our desire,
We wish; we aspire.
Travel to the place
Where we have silence,
Flower of fragrance,
And nature to admire.
Travel to the place
Where we can write,
Lines of rhyme,
At any time.
Travel to the place
Where we have enough space,
Work without race,
No tension on face.
Travel to the place
Where we can dance,
Sing at glance,
Bit of time to romance.
Travel to the place
Where we spread love,
Freedom to serve
And land to move.
Travel to the place
Where we can live,
Of joy and sprinkle its grace,
And do anything, anywhere.
Where mind set to peace,
No one can see,
Feel us free.
Travel to the place
Where we can breathe,
Fill our desire,
We wish; we aspire.
Travel to the place

Flower of fragrance,
And nature to admire.

Travel to the place

Freedom to serve
And land to move.
Travel to the place

Of joy and sprinkle its grace,
And do anything, anywhere.
"Logic will get you from A to B. Imagination will take you anywhere." (Albert Einstein). This quote depicts Divyesh J. Shah's idea of freeing your imagination within the poem Travel To The Place. Traveling a mile with your own two legs may never be enough as the light years you could walk within your own head.
Our imagination can take us anywhere, its limit is not only the sky, but the stars, the moon, and everything beyond. In Travel To The Place, Shah talks of a place "where we can breathe" or "where we can spread love" or even travel to a place "where we can live". In reality, this place is different for everyone, since everyone has their own ideas of happiness. This makes the entire poem a metaphor, a metaphor for happiness and serenity. This poem tells us to go somewhere within ourselves and find what makes us happy and what makes us feel like we can escape the hardships of reality and become peaceful, even if it is for only seconds. Our imagination is what can set us free from daily struggles and keep us happy and smiling, smiling until our cheeks go numb.
As free-versed as Shah's poem may seem, there is some sort of rhyme scheme, with different lines ending with similar rhymes. These rhymes include many symbols, each having a special meaning. A symbol in the poem can be as small as a breath, or a large as multiple acres of land. In the poem, when Shah says, "Travel to the place/Where we can breathe", that breath that he talks of symbolizes the ability to be free and relieved from the stress of reality. Also, when Shah says, "Freedom to serve/And land to move", he is making the land seem like an open space to move, an open space to breathe, an open space to be free. Overall, the whole poem is a metaphor and a symbol in itself, symbolizing happiness and the ability to be free, being very similar to the other symbols in the poem.
Divyesh J. Shah wrote the poem Travel to the Place to give the reader an opportunity to go somewhere, even if for a few minutes, where the struggles of life don't matter, where you can live without a care in the world, where you can be happy.
