Journeys
A short poem... (that should be read slowly, while having a nice cup of tea.)
Journeys
I like travelling
Slow miles unravelling
over forests, farmlands
and quiet hills meandering
on journeys to nowhere.
I like wandering
watching and pondering
each moment marvelling
at life unfolding
as I pass along this way.
I like brooding
by seasides soothing
by waters calming
on grey stones falling
the moondance of tide
ebbing and flowing
on journeys we make, somewhere.
I like travelling
life unravelling
as we pass this way
going somewhere
and nowhere.
– Jogyata.
