To a far distant shore
let the future prevail,
that our dreams might become
a fresh wind for our sails.

Riding hope to new heights,
for the wake of our past,
though, was filled with great strides,
never was meant to last.

Ever on, stretch the seas,
reaching out to new realms.
Let our faith lend it's strength
to the hands at the helm.

Never wavering course,
seeking truth 'neath the veil
of the stars overhead,
let our lives tell this tale.

Thank you all for replying. I am at best a bad, bad, boy for taking so long in acknowledging your efforts. Write as if the world was on fire and your seat was getting warm! Thanks again, my friends.
