with any journey
it’s all in the planning
or so they say -
are there any maps of the terrain
will it be rough going or just a stroll
will a compass help with direction
or starlight be a better guide?
I prefer starlight
will the route be straight and true
or twisted with many hazards
is there a dark interior
yet to be discovered or
is the search limited
have I a lifetime?
no precision planning for me
I will go where my heart leads
on this expedition -
it will be my guide
with love
