may you find a trail where only briars were before
may it lead you down a hill through tall trees
may the trees have sun-dappled leaves of golden green
may a bend in the path bring you to a stream
may the stream sing joyful songs over large rocks
may you rest awhile in peace drinking in the scene
may you feel your sore muscles as you rise to walk
may strength bind up your limbs and give you a second wind
may you climb up higher than the leafy trees where pines grow
may your steps take you past the strong sentinels still higher
may the view take your breath away as you survey peaks
may each peak be kissed with snow as it rises from green slopes
may the breath fill your lungs until they burst with life
may the wind lift your arms as if you could take wings and fly
may the winding trail lead slowly home to a warm shower
may sleep wrap you in a refreshing embrace until dawn
may another day you wake to find a new trail again
