![]() Journey to my Back-YardA Poem by .:Arianna:.![]() ;)![]() ![]()
Who said Distance is connected closely to Time?
I can prove the opposite, and I'll prove it with rhyme,
that I can fly to the land of kangaroos in a day, though it's so many miles away!
But it can take me two whole weeks to travel from my kitchen to my yard, it's the journey distance seeks.
It's not Time. Time is a mere human invention.
The road is mine and I will go with good intention.
I will open my door, loaded with food and supplies. I will take the first step, towards my yard of roses and of butterflies.
Will you be waiting for me there? Come, let's join this quest together! While others climb mountains, cross rivers, jump in volcanoes through hot air,
thus will we just dwell through the tall grass and the frog well to the borders of my back-garden.
For time has not yet come to pass.
But, listen... As we walk, we will stop at every flower, every stone and every tree, then we'll see we have a power, that few travellers can see...
See you in two weeks! © 2011 .:Arianna:.Reviews
