New World

As my inner journey begins

I see the sun bleached stones ahead

Their weariness etched across time

And yet, in that path I see strength

Each stone so intricately placed

Forming this solid path I walk

Such is life, each experience

Placed in my path along the way

Strengthening my spirit onward

Gaining courage, honor and faith

To look deeper within myself

And love the new world discovered there
