My grandfather asked me
Grandson what will you be
Will you travel the land
Just like me?

I didn't know how to Awnser
I didn't know what to say
So I thought about it
And I prayed

For my grandfather had traveled the world
To see what he could see
I wanted to be like him
I wanted it to be me

I didn't want to travel the land I wandered
And he asked me why not
Because It has already been traveled
At least thats what I thought

There is more to discover in this world of ours
He told me one day
So travel the ocean
Travel and stay

Each place is sacred he told me
Respect present and past
Each day thank the lord
For at least that task

Every nation has beauty
He did explain
Respect the culture
The one and the same

Good night sweet moon
In a wolf's howl
It searches for it's mate
As light casts its shadow

A lone wolf
Never stands by its self
It follows its pack
To bring it to health

By night it howls
Ever night over
And watches the stars
As it showers

Goodnight sweet moon
It howls each night
From the end of the day
Til dawns light

Imagine you were Alice
A world like no other
Where a white rabbit
Could also be a brother


Down a burrow
In times wake
You think when she fell
She thought it was a mistake

It may have been a story
In a book you see
But I connect with Alice
I see more than me

For through stories is learning
Is natures past
In the pages we read
Is the way back

Which way you choose
Is all in a minds eye
To chase a Cheshire cat
Or to live lifes lie

Don't forget who you are
In your heart stay true
Or you might get a red queen
Saying off with you

We are hiding
Will you seek
We are not confided
To what we just speak

A key to a lock
A jam to a door
Will you open it
Will your emotions soar?

Let your words be your guide
A spindle it will weave
It will never slide
From what you truly believe

We are what we are
To be all we can be
In life like a star
To show what we can see

The path is windy
Never straight and narrow
We are here to learn
As a bow does for an arrow

Though you walk the footsteps
You will never be alone
Stick to who you are
The process has been shown

I wish to go to heaven
To the pearly gates
To stand before god
When my date dates

I have followed my heart
A path to follow
To be a leader
In all richeous and good
As to feel what all people should

When I stand before him
I will Awnser what he asks
He might ask if it was easy
He might ask if I followed his path

I will Awnser" I tried"
My Awnser will not sway
For all of us want to be like you
Hopefully someday

We might all have different gods
Each a different form
But he shows many ways
He will never comeform

So stick to what you believe
But always do good
One day you might reach them
Those gates of pearls
As all of us should

Friendships may come
Friendships may go
Always remember
The heart really knows

Though there are times
You may have fought
You may have spat
Remember one thing
No matter where you are at

The reasons you became friends
The first thing to remember
No matter where ever what ever
Your future resembles

Remember your friends
And what that assembles
To have a friend is to be a friend
Always remember that!
