My Walkabout...
The nights were long
and my days seem short
had to do something
so I left my port
A one-way ticket
on a greyhound bus
a compelling journey
inner feeling must trust
first stop,Durango
high in the Rockies
a couple of days hiking
loud thunder was shocking
Next stop,was Gallup
from here,began my walk about
unsure of destination
first step began my route
Halfway to nowhere
dropped my load,to look around
sensational insight
revelation was found
Looked back toward beginning
so distant,out of sight
looked ahead for the end
no end to my flight
Sort of like life
past and future,uncertain
adventerous journeys
once removed from our curtain
continued my walk
through the mountains of Arizona
amazing sights
spent the night all alone-a
Under a canopy of stars
cool evening wind
no city lights
a universe with no end
Infinity came calling
understanding to follow
somewhere hides destiny
heartsongs sung hallowed.....
