Peace, Power and Joy

Dazzling flowers 
    in brilliant  colors 
     line
     our 
     path
          We walk towards our 
homeland filled with anticipation 
        seems like rays 
of sunlight
     Are leading us, onward, onward 
   We can see our goal
in the distance 
A goal surrounded by mist
Even as day morphs 
   into night
   Our fond hopes survive
Tomorrow dark clouds 
       may obscure our way 
       we only have ourselves 
               in the end
  in the endless search for 
Peace, Power, and Joy
