"The further we go the closer together"

Everywhere An infinite variety of weather Unites in fragmentation we who wander A constancy of change to bring together Those of us shut outside here left to ponder Our situation as those who do not fit Within so find without our when and whether Liberation for those who are used to it The challenge of freedom for those who are not Both ready to soar on tried or untried wings Our task is to remember what we forgot As the living epistles of hidden things Forced to root for our truffles under the sky We have found what some less adventurous sought Intuitively in life's interlocked rings The keys to the cosmos are kept in the heart Where we found them and keep them by asking why Not everyone can see such important things But to embrace their existence is to start To be embraced by the magic of the day Which though it surprises comes with a warning Yet that which is closest seems furthest away A thousand dimensions in front of our nose If tomorrow comes it will be that morning About which this night has had so much to say When at last we might learn the name of the rose And we will be ready because we were there Out under the sky in a change of weather The further we go the closer together Without but within nowhere yet everywhere +Steven Curtis Lance Copyright MMVIII

"The keys to the cosmos are kept in the heart." I love that line,
Steven. It is a poem all by itself, and should have a place of honor on your bio page.
The entire poem is inspirational, though, too.
