Adrift

Lost on a journey
Drifting down from the skies above
Landing in a cool stream
That flows where only I see
As I stand alone
And see the weightless treasure
Moving away.
I follow as long as I can
Cool water brushing my ankles
Over rocks and life
Treading carefully
Lest I fall
As I am not like this feather
I must measure my steps
And walk with purpose
But with caution,
I could so easily get lost
Underneath these depths
Of dreams and life
That carry me along on my path
Through land, wood, and water
I am this moment
In the woods
I am following the unknown
To see where it all ends
To see where it will reside
In this book of life.
