The poet’s use of similes, affectionate tones and inclusion in the first stanza, creates the sense of security within the home, immediately relating the idea of belonging to place. The lines “Hid the key under a rusty bucket” implies the belief that Mary Street is a safe and secure

Our search to find out who we are is fuelled by a need to find a place in the world where we belong. Through exploration and analysis of the novel Romulus my Father by Raimond Gaita, the picture book Mirror by Jeannie Baker and the animated film Mary and Max my perceptions of belonging have been enhanced and broadened.

In this poem, belonging to place is the focus. Given that the poet and his family spent ‘nineteen years’ living in the same house in the same street in the same suburb, we assume that if he belongs anywhere, it is here. However, the poem speaks of a false or constructed sense of belonging. The poet tells us in detail of the day-to-day routine – ‘each morning, shut the house/like a well-oiled lock/hid the key… back at 5p.m… my parents watered plants… tended roses and camellias/like adopted children’ – however, a feeling of emptiness pervades over this whole scene.
