All around you, you searched, but in vain,
In every cranny, corner and nook,
In each rivulet, stream and brook...
In the thunder clouds and the rainy skies,
In rainbows and the stars galore,
In fairy tales and fable crowds,
In acts pleading to encore.
In the morning sun and at the crack of dawn,
In the moonlight which was shimmering bright,
In the guilt of those who knew had wronged,
In the virtue of who were right.
In ballads and in soulful songs,
In a beloved's caring doting eyes,
In the words spilled from a poet's quill,
In blood thick bonds and friendly ties.
The worry of an unknown tomorrow,
The hunger for lasting cheer,
The search for constant jubilation,
had filled your mind with fear.
The rainbows and stars you noticed not,
were blessings from the skies above.
The silent goodbyes with tear filled eyes,
were cues to have lost all you love.
But all around you searched in vain,
for something that was never there.
trying to make some sense of life,
you quite lost out your share.
You'd met contentment in every sight,
but were far too busy to see,
It was never the journey that mattered, friend,
it was how you chose it to be!!!HPK!!!
