An ode

A burst of light through sunkissed leaves
A dance of color on crystal reefs
A pattern of ripples the ocean weaves
I am miracle. I am beauty.

A resolute march across unknown land
A valiant pen in fate's reckless hand
The travails of doubt I boldly withstand
I am courage. I am duty.

A roar of wind swirling the skies
Towering waves that crash and arise
Embodiment of fire and ice
I am chaos. I am strife.

A wanderer’s quest for final abode
A leap of faith on an unseen road
A vista of mysteries I slowly unfold
I am a journey. I am life.
