Speck
1/20/16
Having more than a heart of gold
No matter what even in the dark and cold
Always staying sharp and bold
By the trees and seas
I'm (My mind) at ease
While I breathe
Not afraid to try and fail
Regardless of what this life entails
Still continuing on all kinds of trails
As I step with one foot in front of the next
During the trek
Amid matter and molecules no bigger than a speck
Taking time to reflect
When perplexed
Then I progress
Putting forth my very best
To the furthest extent
So that I may be much more than adept
While I still live in the flesh
And until my death
Beside the pebbles and stones
Near and far away from all of the roads
Across the globe
