THE JOURNEY BEGINS
One tiny drop from the expanse of the ocean
within it lies the mind of unconscious emotions
Out on my own, left to my own resources.
An individual at last, creating life's courses.
A body made manifest set out to discover
so many hidden treasures to uncover.
Behind me I leave my ocean of blue.
Into the wilderness my spirit roams free.
Forlorn, forsaken inhabitants unseen.
The sound of a bird the first sound I hear.
The sight I behold produces a tear.
This land is extended its richness unknown.
My spirit entwined with the four winds that blow.
The red dust I walk in leaves footprints behind
gently dispersing in infinite time.
The beauty beholds me with each breath I take.
Learning to temper, soften and relate
the flora, the fauna and the birds in their trees.
Fish in their oceans all wonderfully free
living in harmony with the other.
Embraced by nature their tender loving mother,
supplying abundance the food that they need.
Providing their shelter she lovingly heeds.
As I gaze up above still where I stand
My eyes reflect beauty so brilliant and grand.
The stars and the planets set high in its firmanent.
A silent wish all I witness remains permanent.
As I sit and ponder for awhile
My heart filled with joy I lovingly smile.
This virgin land I've walked upon,
the stars and moon and planets beyond.
A moment in time I've heard and I've seen.
A universe so awesome, untouched and clean.
So I awaken and begin my journey.
My home, my life, my soul's been yearning
to explore and respect and enjoy this land.
Its spirit, its beaches and pure white sands.
To walk with love and an open heart.
Eternally grateful never to depart.
Take my hand and walk with me
together we'll share infinity.
