Chase of a Lifetime

 

swiming young man Poised for exodus

from a dryness of spirit

I thirst for a wellspring

A challenge, a call

a horizon to fill my gaze

with hope

I thirst for deep waters

A journey, a call

a mission to join

passion and purpose

It is the chase of a lifetime

It's what we all thirst and hunger for.
He puts it into our hearts, I think.

Between you and Glynn, I am really getting pushing me to share my relationship in new ways.

Thank you both.
