Free And Wild

Footloose…I chase earthbound rhythms of joy

Steeped in age-old songs of the universe—

Primordial truths, the real McCoy,

That urge heart to soar like heroic verse.

An afternoon excursion along sandy and notably receding Jordan Lake shorelines inspires inquiry and contemplation. The chaos of pine straw flotsam and fading, albeit purposeful human footprints in damp beach sands tickle curiosity, fire imagination and invite philosophical musings.


In mind’s eye I revisit similarly fading footprints of my physical adventures and spiritual pilgrimages, mindful of my own insignificance in the vastness of the Cosmos. After all, human odysseys are but a flicker of light when cast against the eternal, ever-lasting backdrop of cosmic seas and spiritual mysteries beyond time and space.
