| FROM A DISTANCE Every last dream that was ever dreamed Started its journey from the bottom of an endless sea Rose to the surface struggling through the currents fighting to breathe Wanting to live Newborn and clinging to the wild white caps of water yet, Unafraid Hopes and wishes of mightier seas were still its aspiration Blindly trusting someone to pluck it from the dangerous waters and gift it wings From a distance all bob and curl on the turbulant waves much the same Some that will be soaring to greater heights and Others that will swirl into oblivion, and slowly sink Sheryl McCurdy |

| ELUSIVE Deep into the pocket of dreams Searching for that ember of light Ransacking every distant hope ever conceived Reaching to seek and find and keep Taking steps to quiet my discomforting rage Impatience my enemy Controlling the anticipation is so difficult The desire to stalk and capture An overwhelming compulsion All consuming A tantalizing glimpse of a gleam on the horizon Pulls me onward to face a new day Again to sweep the corners of my mind Trying to make sense of the flotsam I live Nirvana the ultimate goal For always I am on a quest to claim the prize The golden glow of inner peace Tranquility I crave to be mine by Sheryl McCurdy |
