Travel on, restless one
Seek your fortunes
Find your gold
Save your maidens
Slay your dragons
Be brave, be bold.
Travel on, restless one
Climb your mountainsReach your peak
Cross your oceans
Tame your jungles
Know you're not meek.
Travel on, restless one
Your journey waits
You must flyYou'll find your treasure
Back at home
It is I, it is I.

Jingle: Thanks so much! Not used to writing for a theme but am enjoying the practice here. Been about 30 odd years since I've written much. Feels good to do it again.
Direct and simple, but still not too sweet. Has an almost nursery rhyme timeless feel. Liked it.
How sweet. : )
Such a great message... I imagine from mother to child? This is the kind of thing I imagine a parent saying to their child around the time of high school graduation. You worded it beautifully. Thanks for sharing and thanks for visiting my blog!
Beautiful.
Great poem. The journey is always to home.
