just a breath of gratitude
just another reach for the light
just a search into the soul
before my plane takes flight

taking care of all the details
packing up the stuff
can I even put one more thing
into that bag of mine

when you live on an island
2500 hundred miles away
it takes a little while to get anywhere
and some adjustment
to different times and ways

so I always look at travel
as an adventure
a chance to open new doors
to let go of my fixed ways
and learn a little more

there’s so much that is out there
and I have to make the time
to connect with friends in person
and not just here online

so one more journey
one more place to open up my mind
and let my soul guide me
to other shades of light
