The Journey

The Journey

 

Birds pluck worms from the grass

And then leap and fly,

Watching over as I rest.

The trees whisper and laugh

As I trudge on by,

On to the next and the next.

 

Hedges grow tall and thick,

Snag me as I pass

But never shorten my steps.

The path narrows and splits

And seasons change fast,

On to the next and the next.

 

There is heart in this clearing

So I slip away,

Feeling it in my chest.

The sun is warm and healing,

Facing the new day.

On to the next, and the next.
