Love

High and low

I looked

I searched

I begged

Searching for meaning

Searaching for interpretation

Searaching for guidance

Hills

Mountains

Pinnacles

Ponds

Lakes, and

Oceans

Deserts

Plains, and

Continents

Sorcerers

Fortune tellers, and

Wisemen

Texts

Books, and

Schools

When I returned

Empty-handed

Tired, and

Desolate

Seeking comfort

Shelter

Solace

Within

Alone with my heart

I saw it

Touched it

Drank it

And grew

The alchemy of life

The essence of being

The key to peace all around

Love.
