                               Where Someone Waits for You

A plane’s navigation lights chart our dreams
To Jupiter, Saturn, Venus, and the moon
And farther into the mysterious night
To somewhere far away, where adventures begin

For that elusive happiness long deferred

And maybe someone there is dreaming too
And we down here can happily wonder who
