I cross the world

by judester

I cross the world, come home to you,
on gusts of wind, vast oceans blue.
Planes, trains, maybe row a kayak,
hot air balloon, wind on my back.
Perhaps a bike that's built for two.

Tramping down snow, with webbed snowshoes,
I'll ride a dragon, what a view!
A pirate ship, with sails of black,
I cross the world.

Evening sunsets, cool morning dew,
sunrise pastels, I'll travel through.
Ride an elephant's wide, grey back,
or an accomadating yak.
Whirlwind trip, destination.... you.
I cross the world.
