The world was at her tiny feet, as she smiled big;
A smile that a girl who has the world should smile,
The answer was deep, but she was willing to dig;
And more than willing to search mile after mile.
Walking down the white ribbon before her restless body,
She scouted for a sign that may point her the right way;
But synthetic smiles from strangers is all she could see,
So she kept walking on through the interstate, feelings at bay.
She came upon an old gate, set her eyes beyond;
As a man walked up to her, greeted her with a laugh;
"Sir, I`m sorry; I don`t think I`d be able to correspond - "
With stern eyes, he started to tear her lie in half.
"Darling, I`ve been watching you on your way up here;
I`ve seen you stop at every mile marker or two,
Between that and the fear colored bright in your eyes, it`s clear;
You`re not ready, not ready to be here, are you?"
With tears in her eyes, she looked down to her feet,
"I just want the answers, I`ve been searching for too long;
And through it all, I`ve been trampled down in defeat;
I`ve never been right Sir, but this time; I don`t want to be wrong."
With hope swirling into his eyes, he leaned down and sighed:
"The answer my child, is found nowhere but in yourself,
You`ve been looking, yes; but the truth is where you hide -
You know the answer already, it`s there: within itself.
You`ve got a heart and a mind of your very own,
And that is all that you need right now my Dear;
You got one shot now; climb the mountain alone -
When you reach the top, that`s when it becomes clear."
Incase the meaning to this poem wasn`t very clear, it`s just about how so often we go out looking for answers when all along they are there inside of us. The mountains we climb to reach our goals, are often where the answers are hidden all along. However, some people push on and try to rush the dreams and change themselves for other people to get there, the point of this poem is saying that do not change for no one but yourself and wait until you are ready. The story line is based on a little girl willing to do anything to have her world of dreams, the man she meets is her Guardian Angel.
