Nov. 27, 2005 - A Free Spirit

I am a free spirit,
walking this earth like a wild mare,
untamed, unblemished by conformity.
I walk at my own pace,
sprint at my own rhythm.
I walk with packs,
yet I am never afraid to walk my own path,
to explore my own terrain,
to discover my own mystery.
Nor doubt if danger or defeat lies

behind the next bend in the road.
But to only say:
"So long as the grass is stiff,
the ground virgin,
and the stream undisturbed-
I will chase the wind."
For my purpose is near,
nearer at every stride.
