the turn of a key,
the roar of an engine;
with the kiss of a breeze,
the blessing of light,
the call of the horizon;
she is off.
She is off to new lands,
to wherever the road may take her,
whether by pavement
or gravel
or dirt
or river
or sea
or the endless sky,
she is gone.
She is gone to explore,
to experience all that this world
has to offer her open mind
and willing heart,
ready to embrace the spirit
of travel.
