Spiritual forces
Enlightenment yearnings set
to engulf oneself

Sincere wishes to
achieving heart's desires
on a pilgrimage

Last leg to journey's
Shikoku aspirations
Good tidings ahead

  1. it feels good when you get to that last leg
    and know your destination is in sight...
    that is for sure.

    was wondering about you when i did not see you
    as #1 at pat's today...smiles.

  2. haha yeah did not know where you went not being #1 under my tent haha

    Even if tired and dragging along, once the last leg shows up, a burst of energy comes from somewhere

    1. A frustrating day it was.
      Not as bad as when Mary did me off
      from #53 previous to that
      Truedessa this time, I'm glad!
