Not to me …


Not to me my dear heart
not to me
for I am a shallow man
with not a lot of future
ahead of me.

I’ve searched a terrain
long and wide.
I’ve undertaken journeys
across foreign soils.
I’ve ventured far
and seen all kinds –

but none so rich
as what inside I found.

A mind abundantly rich –
wealth beyond a human (’s) scope
more about life than another did
so poetically or prose wrote.

I know, along some narrow ford
I expect a more,
much more greater reward
but what I have found
although challenging at times
has altered every view and kind.
