Wizard of Cause

A Poem by Pete
"

A man may walk abroad and no more see the sky than if he walked under a shed. - Thoreau

Golden river

in search of the mother load
with my fine, feathered hat and dreaded locks
before my aging body slowed
i followed the yellow brick road
in the direction that the black bird flew as morning crowed
lily pad to lily pad as glittering water flowed
'twasn't about the destination
but rather how the journey was traveled and the road strode
