Take a Moment: Art and Poetry with Rich Okun
The Traveler
I’ve traveled
the world over,
and of all the places
I’ve ever been,
none is better
than deep, deep,
deeper, within.
I can think of
no journey that
is any sweeter
or greater,
than learning your
now, then and later.
So,
be I quiet and still,
to travel that swirl,
down and around
in a spiraling fashion,
to just be,
until
I’ve found,
with my all
consuming passion,
that the journey is me.
