Criss-Crossing the Land

     Criss-crossing the skies and land
     From mountains to meadows 
     From rivers and lakes to sand

        Trains, cars, buses, planes ~
        Liberation from hometown chains

Yep, the world is getting smaller every day. Now it needs to start getting more intelligent. Well said. When my wife was a child, walking to school in New Mexico during the late 30's, she often was forced to lie down flat on the ground, to keep her legs and face from being cut by blowing dust.

Hello Gershon! Fantastic! I love how the movement and exploration while criss-crossing the land and skies really evokes a sense of adventure. The contrast between the freedom of travel and the "hometown chains" is thought-provoking. I think that you’ve beautifully captured the spirit of wanderlust! Spring Blessings, My Friend, Daniel
