Diane and Marie

With a new found solace and a vibrant new strength,
the dawn arose in their eyes.
starting out west back east was their quest,
taking the world by surprise.

from the ferns and the pines they'd twist and wind,
dieing to see the next curve.
freedom they found on the path they laid out,
excitement lay round every turn.

From evergreen trees high atop mountain peaks,
to the plush green valleys below.
through badlands and wastelands to bleached desert sands,
embracing the heat and the cold.

With every days sunset they'd stop and reflect,
a new found breath in the stars.
inquisitive and child like with each new sunrise,
keeping each one in their hearts.

through the little quaint towns of a time long ago,
to the freeways of cities and lights.
across bridges and meadows where sweet water flowed,
meeting with all walks of life.

Familiar never seemed so far away,
each mile a new smile arose.
lost in the first time of the wonders they'd find,
a little farther down the road.

with a knock at the door their quest was complete,
meeting their long distance friends.
two thousand miles just to meet me,
proving that circles don't end.
