Three Suns

I took a trip through the woods with nothing but faith on my side
saw the sun for three days and the moon for two but i wasnt lost
hunger and thirst ate at my side but the water i had, had to wait
nature made me a home and kept me dry and warm all the night 
there were times i wanted to die thought i wouldnt make it out alive
then something amazing happened water rushed through the next day
but then I forgot why I started this miserable plan to find myself
it wasnt till I met the men that greeted me back to this place 
I learned wisdom only comes when people get hurt
and the great thing to do is not boast on yourself
so I'll just take what i have learned and keep movin on
and three suns will always remind me that I am strong
no matter though cause i was never alone

Danny, hello! a deep walk in the woods. nature has its way to give and take. Also expose~ i think this walk was meant for one, because at times we fail to see what is really there. Wisdom is only 3 suns away. I want to thank you for sharing a lesson more than the moon. And that strnght is found in ones blindness... you have a great day,..Linda
