Journeying through a solitary mundane realm
Days marching  into days...
Each flowing endlessly onward...
Till the next to come...
Where I am forever going towards...
Yet whence have I only just departed from...

Constantly driven by unseen compulsive needs
Unbridled emotions...
Predestined fates...
Somehow always when finally I arrive...
Finding it to be much too early...
Or far too late...

Lifelessly attired in cumbersome self-made garments
Created from fabric called...
Disenchantment and isolation...
Head bent low against what truly is or was...
I nearly miss a fleeting moment...
A chance reclamation...

Reaching out, softly touching me, warm hands of destiny
Permitting my tear filled eyes...
To lift, to see...
A lone stranger, standing at a crossroads named...
Someday soon...
What will be, will be...

Softly spoken, an invitation, a picnic to be enjoyed
A sweet secluded meadow...
Created in the minds...
Followed, a forthright challenge...
"Take my hand, settle not for compromise"...
"Let us journey together, to find what we shall find"...

Time has come to pass, serenely now I rest,
Amid a myriad of beautiful wildflowers...
Butterflies and red clover...
Life has without a doubt changed forever...
Pasts and futures pondered about...
Over and over again...

Once in a lifetime love, like a pot of shining gold
Awaiting you, at the end of a distant rainbow...
Elusive...yes
Real...perhaps
Till then, I shall await elucidation...
In my quiet, enchanted, meadow...
