Destiny

out in the distance
my destiny
dances with stars
and no matter
where I am
it's never very far
so happy
and joyous
oh how it flows
never very far from me
it follows me
where ever I go
it's in me
it's near me
it's hundreds of miles away
I touch it
I taste it
like tomorrow
was yesterday
destiny
sweet destiny
I can hear you
calling my name
soon
we will be together
one and the same

Wonderful poem! I really enjoyed it!

                                        "I touch it
                                          I taste it
                                        like tomorrow
                                        was yesterday"

Neat wording!

I was hoping you'd write something special for the big 500...something just for you!  You never dissapoint.  BTW, the parade will begin at sunset!  I'll bring the confetti!
