Everything

tyrone peck 1963 (Kerrville Tex)

everything is an island,
bathing in a sea of truth.
truth is an island,
bathing in a sea of lonliness.
love is an island,
surrounded by the sea of lonliness.
happiness is an adventure,
thru all seas and all islands.
to remain in the present,
is to move forward without beginning
or end.in this way to progress and
succeed is to progress and succeed
always and forever.
