Explorer

I am an explorer.

I reach out for distant horizons.

I may never reach them, but I reach out for them.

Has anyone ever arrived at where the sky touches the earth?

On my way, I need to rest from time to time. My body is getting older.

The rests are what makes the journey worth it. I rest where I feel warmth from people.

You can be one of them. Then I lift my eyes, and the horizon seems a bit closer.

I feel a warm breeze and I know that it has been worth arriving here.

Sometimes people go with me for a while, and I go with them.

Then we can help each other through the weather.

There will be a day when I will rest forever.

Will you then be there and be with me?

Together we can jump over walls.

We are explorers.
