The Hiker
I walk a path beyond the fields
Where flowers lace the sky
The cool fresh scent of mountain air
Has lifted me up high
The daylight fades, I slow my pace
I haven't got a fear
I'll camp the night and watch the flames
The sound of life is near
The dawn will break, I'll rise again
To start a brand new day
I'll breath it in and fill my soul
I'll soon be on my way.

As Dave said, you're words are putting me there, too.
This has a timeless quality...The Journey, The Trek, The Adventure into the unknown. The meter has a hiking kind of cadence, so the rhythm fits the content.
The Road goes on and on. Very impressive, Denise.

This is awesome Denise. Is it a PS filtered image or did you paint it? It has a magical feel and your spirit is really coming through those words. :)
