though I walk thru the sea of travelers
life slaps me back down to the earth
if feels like an ocean as I pass
going horizontal thru the masses
the motion I feel and see is thousands of moving people
flowing like the ocean
but to me as I walk against the grain
it looks to be the sea
the feelings are the same
the future of their march
has just began
following the ripple
of lifes trails
onward the next stop
the field they have just battled thru
a new battle front
the test is true
to boldly go forth
venturing a dream
that started with a thought
fraught with hardship and obstacles in their path
they have passed the test
standing now amidst the ocean
like a light house
casting their light
to show others the way
