A Journey

Through the woods
Through the rivers
Crossing miles of way
The journey began.

Across the trees
The thorny roses
Bearing fiercy rays of sun
The skin burning heat.

Sometimes that it was tiring
The painful long walks
Still there was a hope
A shine to be a pearl.

Hopes to win
Wishes to conquer
No fear in heart
A will to reach.

Rest down for a while
When the mind distracted
Success is never easy
Thats what the heart said.

A deed for a good
A reason to smile
The path that lead
Through lots of tests.

Its never difficult to move ahead
Thats what it taught
When the pains and injuries
Ended up my journey, where I wished to be.
