From the Mountain To the Sea

FROM the MOUNTAIN to the SEA Sophie Boswell Life is like a journey from the mountain to the sea A struggle through many layers to finally feel free Free to go out and see the wonders of the world Where, in the process, one is often hurled This way and that, through the good and the bad Where emotions are flung lose to the point of driving you mad Sometimes, when I'm down, and feel worn out And everything around me seems to be in doubt My vision is blurred; my judgment is haywire And my demons rejoice in putting out my fire I think about the journey from the mountain to the sea By the light of the moon; a heavenly place to be This place, in the mind, will always set me free to be the happy wanderer I was meant to be Gathering and searching in peaceful solitude Where time and nature can alter my mood And the Spirit of Life will breathe inside me As I journey from the mountain to the sea. oOo
