Road's End Poem by Laurence Overmire

Road's End

As you survey this ocean majesty
Tread lightly
Watch carefully where your feet pass
Do not trample on the hopes of Mother Earth's
Best intentions

All is sacred here

Be aware
Notice how your eyes begin to dance
To the rhythm of the waves
Your ears attune to the plaintive
Seagull's cry

This is your home, our home
The place where it all began
And the place where you and I
Our forefathers and mothers
Our children and grandchildren
All of us will someday
Return

This is a place where love never dies
Respect it
And feel its power.
