From an old companion

The sun was out when it rained today,
when I wondered where you've been.

Grand adventures, and wondrous lands,
far greater than the places we've seen.

The trees have grown since we saw them last,
and I wondered if you've been well.

Fighting on, and chasing dreams,
Living the tales we used to tell.

The river still threatens to flood over,
so I wondered if you've been afraid.

Helpless, as the storm rages on,
Whoever shall come to your aid?

The seeds still dance in the wind when they fall,
I wondered if you've found your way home.

They say, "Journeys end in lovers meeting,"
I see, brave hero, you are no longer alone.
