One Step Ahead
The forest talks.It whispers my name,
and tells me what awaits me through my journey.
The wind sings.
It hums a wondrous melody,
that warns me of a danger that grows near.
The creek murmurs.
It's beautiful sound combines with the forest and wind,
and enlightens me of what I am in for.
I listen to the forest, for it is my home.
The wind is my sister, and quite trustworthy.
And the creek, my brother; forever running and never stopping.
Because of this, I am constantly surrounded by my home and family.
And because I listen to them all,
I will always stay one step ahead.
The sun gives me strength.
Harmonizing with my melody,
and caressing me in warmth and knowledge.
The moon joins in.
It waits for the right time,
and helps me survive my hardest moments.
The starts are bright.
Rarely changing, and always there,
as a reminder I am never alone, and never will be.
They each play their part in helping me,
for each are trustworthy with their advice.
I listened to them then, I listen to them now, I listen to them always.
For that, I will Always remain but one step ahead.
