Reflections

Off the winding roads on to the dirt,

A path still to be carved, 

an adventure still to be explored,

The unknown and the fear of the known, 

Life is an explorer and your choices the driver. 

Destination unknown.

Live with the excitement of the explorer, 

Trade with the caution of a keeper, 

Surrender to the sail only to trust the wind, 

Sensibility and sensitivity be the guide, 

No matter how choppy the tide, 

Destination unknown. 

Never for the shore nor for the city, 

The explorer is for the journey. 

Living for it and lost in it, 

Only to start one thinking many more to come, 

It's not how you reached but how you traveled, 

Destination unknown. 

Traveled but not accompanied, 

Found only to be lost, seen but forgotten, 

A meaningless tryst the greatest explorer, 

Not without a compass but with a story teller, 

To share the twist without the turn, 

Destination unknown.

Not to be alone but only to be cherished, 

Paddle on the wheel,

Not to be pushed but only to be guided, 

Holding on to the road only to be closer to the

Destination unknown
