The Call

I first heard it in the wind,
heavy and soaked in
secrets that trees whispered
in a land across the sea
Where the wild still ruled.

Then came the messages from the waves
I heard it in the roar as they
crashed upon the shore, over and over
A rhythmic pattern that resonated
with every beat of my heart.

They were a summons,
A wild and dangerous magic,
Haunting the moments that existed
Between dreams and reality.

The call for an adventure
To the one that held my destiny.
Be Brave, have courage, they said
Venture into the unknown.

When sun caressed my skin
As felt it upon my face,
Its warmth, a kiss upon my lips
and I knew I could not rest
until my adventure was complete.
