When I wake up in a city
That yesterday was strange
Today I can imagine
That I might have place
Amidst the bustling crowds,
Strange sites and foreign sounds
With the help of google maps
I begin to find my way around
I recognize that street sign
I remember where to turn
These ordinary victories
Start making foreign feel like home
My morning runs are helpful
I build a map while I explore
And when I sip my midday coffee
I feel at peace a little more
I stop to buy a postcard
It’s more fun than on the phone
Telling you my stories
Reminds me I’m not alone
I spend my evening strolling
No longer skittish like last night
My spacious mind now welcomes
The setting sun and city delights
