A traveler once boasted

I've been here.
I've been there.
Full of wonder
Full of awe

If there's a beautiful thing
I must go see!

Then from a voice not far

What if you see it all?
things we see
are so easily 'saw'
You can wish for 'be's'
but they will always turn 'been's';

Getting there is a gift
but exploration's demise!
