There are places we should go
Before we die.
Places in our minds
Places in the sky.
But nobody gets everywhere.
So there you are,
Stuck somewhere short of where
You should go.
Short of a life and learning
You should know.
So the places you should and could have seen
Are places you’ll never know.
But…But…
Cherish the spaces you know.
Somehow you ended up here.
I did too.
So here we are
Trying to figure out how things work.
In the meantime, I hope we can agree to this:
The sky is a beautiful blue
And with the clouds makes great romance;
The Moon keeps us honest
By watching from afar;
Waves are honest
Because they never repeat their lies;
And dogs love to smell
Because they don’t believe their eyes.
