Breadth
He has gone forth
and traversed the paths of the world
and sought out those things
the desires of his soul
to see the majesty of the land
the work of those who labor
in their daily struggles
who walk in flame and in pain
and to preserve those things
in song and moving pictures
so that others might
see as he sees
who can turn his course
his feet are firm set
his focus is fixed
and he has stayed true to his path
who can move his heart
He understands himself
can another see him
His fire smolders It is in his control
His power is his own
a richly landscaped mind
the possibilities are endless
the depth and breath of him
is ceasless and endearing
My heart aches to explore him
and mine the vastness of his mind
its expanse is awesome a lifetime to reach into
all his nooks and crannies
May the sun rise
and shine upon all you do that is true
May you know that you
have brought beauty into my soul
and touched my heart
tenderness fills it
the only man who has moved me
from myself my own circumspection
to look upon his
no scriptures for this as its simply reflections
