if it’s here
I’ve been that
I’ve walked thousands of miles cross the
widest deserts climbed the highest
mountains
and jumped in with both feet seem themes
that have broken my heart and others
that filled it with wonder I’ve stopped
to listen stooped to hoard and fight
to change
I’d help build peace between people and
animals
and seen the spark of wonder and a
child’s eye
I’ve walked
run
climbed
and slow
and now
I’m funny home
you
