The sweetest things.
The sweetest things
A Poem by Coyote Poetry
The simple things my friends make life worthwhile.

I have saw so many beautiful places and I have walked on places of mystery and ancient grounds.
I have watched the sea rise and fall. I have danced with the waves of the California coastline.
I have suicide board the big storms of Winter with the Pacific ocean. I felt so small and so safe.
The Pacific was kind to me. She knew I respected her.
I stood upon mountain tops. I prayed to the hawk and the eagle.
I stood at the pinnacle in Virginia and I could see four states.
My eyes could see forever the beauty and strength of nature.
I free-climbed every mountain near. I climb to places few people had touched or seen.
I did not fear the possibility of no way back with ease. I had no fear and too much whiskey to
make me test my will to be alive.
I stood on the grounds of ancient Castles in Germany. I could feel the power and strength
of a once powerful race of people.
I saw and touched Egypt ancient places and sand. I liked the old places. When I ran my hands through
the sand of the Egypt desert. I felt the loneliness of a once beautiful and alive place.
I saw 40 countries and befriended people in each place. I wanted to understand each location
and allow them to become part of me.
The lessons that I learn was all mothers and fathers want the same. They want their children to be
safe and free. Every mother and father love their children.
I know life is fair and good for the man who don’t want to steal or abuse.
I learn everybody want a warm and safe place to live. I never met a man or woman
who wanted their child to be killed in war.
Today I have Grandchildren at my feet. I know what the sweetest things are.
A life filled with travel, a lot of laughter and children.
A wealthy men had many friends and he had known and shared love often.
The sweetest things are free. Lead with kindness and love.
Coyote/John Castellenas
