A Milestone of the Heart - For my bestfriend Eva - August 30, 2009

A milestone of the heart
Has the wind for a friend
Inspiration for the soul
That stays true to the end.

A milestone of the heart
Is a road's lightened breeze
The spirit of a friendship
Heard laughing in the trees.

A milestone of the heart
May be but a disguise
The spirit of great knowledge
And the whispers of the wise.

A milestone of the heart
May beat steady and slow
Is the making of the wind
Where kindred spirits grow.

-M Rene Riel
