Mysterious Journey
Down rugged, misty, long forgotten, mountain trails
we struggled on until we could finally see.
Down in the mysterious valley.
It is where ‘they’ will be.
In a land of mystery and enchantment.
We knew the only answer was down
in the valley at the macabre encampment.
Where the ‘mystic ones’ were reported to be.
Though, never seen.
No matter how much we would stare.
We could feel ‘them’.
We knew that ‘they’ were there.
Down in the valley is where ‘they’ had to be.
We had to know. We had to go.
Though the risk was so high
it threatened our very souls.
Down in the valley
was where we had to go.———————–R. W. Johnson—–(2004)
