I wrote these lyrics in the early 1990s as I did some deep soul searching.

 Finding my Friend
by the Poetess (SRP)

 
In the East I climbed to the tallest peak
Over every mountain I did seek.
In the South I waded through jungles of green

Got lost in the thicket, forever, it seemed.
  

In the West I rode. . .facing much pain
Groping to find my dear friend again.

In the North I laid over frozen streams

Waiting for an answer to come in my dreams.

 

On the Earth I sat in the warm sunshine 

Praying for a vision of this friend of mine.
To the Skies I gazed with eyes open wide

Looking for the place where she might hide. 

 

 

Then One day I stepped up the smallest hill
Where inside my door step I sat very still.
I opened my heart and began to see

The Love I had searched for. . .inside of me.

A journey of a thousand miles begins with a single step, and taking the the final step of one, leads to another. Journey on. Patrick

So insightly meaningful are these verses, Poetess. I have often pondered (and written) about this theme. You have shared it very well via your verses here. Thank you. Love and best wishes,

Regis
