Can love exist on the back of a pack mule? <br />Occasionally resting to drink in the hopes of a dream <br />Exhausted and weary, dreary the journey <br />Thirsting unperturbed with no in-between <br />Travelling light with a heavy conscious <br />Hasten the pace, a quick spur of the mule <br />Within this small package lies something precious <br />And, the baggage it brings belongs only to you<br /><br />Marcus McKinley<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/a-long-journey-along-a-narrow-path/
