Distant Shores

DISTANT SHORES

I've seen the sun go down on distant shores,
Leaving me a feeling that theres so much more,
In life to see and things to do,
should I settle for less just to make it through?

I've learned to love a summers breeze,
and heard the wind blow through the trees.
I've taken time to walk alone,
under the moon and setting sun.

Paid attention to the little things,
theres truth in beauty and minor subtlties.
My childrens hands I hold in mine,
the greatest peace that was never hard to find.

Want a life simple with peace,
someone to share it with to put me at ease.
My struggles in life to be no more,
to see the sun go down on distant shores.
