Journey's End

Our journey’s end, that forges beyond golden streams
                             And burnished hills
                     Holds unseen timeless dreams

                The journey takes us to sunlit harbors
                         And gold coastal shores
           All kissed by nature’s sweet smells and beauty

       Beyond the journey lie golden streams and golden dreams
                       Candle-light softens our vision
           With purity the symbol, beyond this world’s beauty

       Yet, we will see with new vision that encompasses all
                   Brilliance, clarity, aromas and splendor
    Of heavenly mists, mountain grandeur and earth’s poignant places

    As we continue this journey to the end, if we look and really see
                   The beauty and splendor of this world
        We will have succeeded and achieved our earthly purpose.
