(My route today: Durham, NC -> Assateague Island, MD)
Day #67: It's my last full day travelling. I will have to make a beeline for home tomorrow. The country music has infultrated my system and made me want to be a country song writer today as I sat on the Assateague Island beach initially just trying to clear out my thoughts and not be depressed. I hope someone in this universe doesn't laugh at me for posting this up! (BTW, Christina, Mike, Robin, Dave, writing this was what you saw me doing on the beach that evening!)
Once upon a lifetime
I had heard the crashing Atlantic
It called for me to abandon the now
And to lead the life fantastic.
Once upon a lifetime
I had taken my first real breath
It was the crisp cool Rockies air
I inhaled to my lungs content.
Once upon a lifetime
In Crater Lake I saw the color blue
Nature gave my eyes vision
My new life gives you gratitude.
Once upon a lifetime
I was touched by the constellations
Coyingly I winked back at the stars
I had just a mere infatuation.
Once upon a lifetime
I wished all could come and feast
to realize life is succulent
and live a little at least!
