Adventure flies
Before our feet
Our steps chasing its path
As it weaves itself
Into a poem
Singing love
Before our dazzled eyes
The couplets turn
To slant
As the path grows dark
And grief finds us
Upon a lonely road
As all those sorrowful moments
Must be faced
In solitude
A contemplation
Of mystery
And feeling
Driven by the mind and heart
Together
Enchanted
By the spells
