The overabundance of beautiful scenery,

The euphoria of delicious sustenance,

The synergy of shared adventure.

A cold ocean dip goes a long way to chill

The hot mind and red sun body.

With magic behind every bend in the road,

With imagination as far as the eye keeps looking,

I cannot keep digesting this wonder of the landscape,

I cannot stop my mind from blinking.

I cannot stop hiccupping with curiosity,

I cannot calm my dauntless spirit.

How I can still find the energy to dream after so much speculation

Remains one ostrich of a mystery

To this stuffed soul.
