Spyglass
I'm looking at what I'm
doing and I'm looking at what I'm pursuing only to discover that I'm bringing
the mirror nearer so that I may see that much clearer. I'm looking through the spyglass but not to
see what I saw last. It is to see where
I need to be and how I'm going to dare to get there. In lots of ways it's like taking a breath of
fresh air and in other ways it's like looking into a scare which may verily
turn out to be a nightmare.
The one thing about a
boat is that you cannot always steer clear of fear. It's like a monster that will suddenly
appear. You cannot let it stop you so
even without knowing you must keep on going.
Sometimes it can be like not having oars where you have to find a way to
keep on rowing and so it is that I understand that with any plan you may have
to change it to rearrange it. It's that
of having a goal that will become an integral part of your soul. It's the thing that kills an envious troll.
You might cry and
indeed you might die but let it not be from not giving it a try. Sometimes even when you fail you prevail for
we indeed learn when we burn. Those who
don't, wont. Those that try to know will
continue to grow and so flew the falcon.
Look at it go. The excitement is
in the dance with chance to where you make so much noise that there will be an
avalanche. At least someone will be
aware that you were there to go on a tear.
There are those who
will always stand opposed. They live to
be full of doubt so bother not in trying to figure them out. Just let them sit there and pout as you pull
in nets full of trout. Those that try to
truly fly will be left with the lingering thought of again touching the
sky. This is why I explore. This is why I soar and this is why of this
universe I desire even more and so it is that I live to see what gives.
Even though every
sunrise is a pleasant surprise what I set out to do is to paint it in a
different hue. Have you ever wondered
what was the smell of a mountain's morning dew?
I wonder why a second cannot be more than a few. Though I'm not fraught I'm overcome with a
preponderance of thought. It's about
what could be that tantalizes me and it's the possibility of finding out that
sets me free. That's why I find it a blast
to look through that spyglass.

even more aware of what's out there.
