The epitome of an adventurer
\nWith a restlessness to feel
\nThe art of being vulnerable
\nAnd tempt providence for real
\nA cartographer who imagined
\nThe lines on maps conceal
\nMyriads of wonderment
\nAnd essentially whats real<\/p>\n
That visionary approach
\nThat brings excitement to the fore
\nPrepared to go out on a limb
\nAnd support it from your core
\nTo subsist and endure the loneliness
\nTo survive when others fail
\nTo hold good on your promises
\nEssentially your tale<\/p>\n
Is exciting it has substance
\nAnd is largely in the main
\nIn the spirit end of characterful
\nWith a backbone that does gain
\nCredence from those following
\nFrom their armchairs
\nMay be so
\nWho also get the adrenaline rush
\nWatching as you show<\/p>\n
Your prowess for survival
\nYour relation to the whole
\nThe enormousness and vastness
\nOf the wilderness
\nAnd its role
\nIn the boundlessness and abundance
\nOf who is a solitary soul<\/p>\n
Your journeys are incredible
\nExceptionally so
\nHudson Bay and the Arctic
\nFor months on end
\nTo know
\nYou only have your own resolve
\nAnd belief to get you through
\nWhat for many would feel impossible
\nBut clearly not for you<\/p>\n
The real love of the unknown
\nBeing resourceful though alone
\nGetting it emotionally
\nAll that power home grown
\nThe need to nourish an aching soul
\nTo eke out his own trail
\nTaking on the pathfinders role
\nAnd knowing you couldn’t fail<\/p>\n
Feeling that connection
\nWith the wilderness today
\nGetting down and dirty
\nIn the rapids and the spray
\nIn the forests on the mountains
\nIn the developing Ice and snow
\nAnd to do it really on your own
\nIn what is an unending flow<\/p>\n
Of inbuilt curiosity
\nAnd a pulsating wealth
\nOf seasonal activity
\nWhich does maintain your health
\nMentally and physically
\nAnd sets you on your way
\nWhilst endurance and perseverence
\nIs sustsining every day<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
