A Seeking Heart Grows

Folder: 
Love

When I was once,

a younger man,

who thought time

and tides would stand,

 

I ventured forth,

with great aplomb,

not caring where,

I ventured from.

 

And in the effervescence,

of my age, 

I sought to create

many an adventured page.

 

So that the many,

as "Byron" or "Keats"

would see the purpose

of traversing life's breech.

 

And with such promise   

on that road less known

and the path beyond

reached as we grow

 

that what we do

I would understand

is prosper in the wake

as the teaching begins

 

others see the light

that we project

from the learned wisdom

and the words connect.

 

From open roads

and dusty trails

for common hearts

in each detail

 

While creation served

must be our goal

it is the care and nurturing

that expands the soul.
