Longing is a part of
human nature.
Seeking worlds
beyond a fixed star
Pushes us to seek
adventures--
Helps us discover
who we are.
Stumbling on a
golden path
Might change your
heart and your demeanor;
Discontent could
spur you on
To seek a place
where the grass is greener.
But if you could see
through Dorothy's eyes--
See the world with
awe and wonder--
You could fly above
the clouds
And see the rainbow
from over and under.
Though your journeys
take you far,
Remember no matter
how far you roam,
Deep inside your
heart for certain
You'll know there is
no place like home.
When dark clouds and
stormy times
Take you to strange
and distant places,
Sometimes you ignore
the signs
And misread the
looks on people's faces.
Love and friendship
are all around us.
The path to
realization wends
Through encounters
that show us that we
Must love ourselves
to love our friends.
So if you could see
through Dorothy's eyes--
See the world with
awe and wonder--
You could fly above
the clouds
And see the rainbow
from over and under.
Though your journeys
take you far,
Remember no matter
how far you roam,
Deep inside your
heart for certain
You'll know there is
no place like home.
