Journeying

Journeying A Temporary Esoteric Plane
As true as it is
And so it be—
Yet 
Though one 
Of the number
Is no more
We remain perpendicular
To the teeming level plane;
Traveling parallel;
Seeking an enlightening quest:
Though the cold 
Dark grave
Lies before us,
It darkness holds no fear—

For ours is a journey of light;
Searching the word 
Without wintering end
Nor demise of summering toils;
Knowing that substitution,
Like raindrops, is temporary.
