Nothing new

lonely road
wandered for miles
sunlight winking
through tousled lanes
Saw nothing
wondrous
or breathtaking
Same ol' mountains
trees
green fields
shivering, sighing in the breeze
Same tiny birds
flowers
people
clattering, clawing, cutting their way
But,
nothing new
Growing weary
unhappy
at ocean's edge
squinting,
glinting
thinking...
perhaps
delights await,
the other side
It stood
still
thrilled
in rapturous thought
At long. last
something new
had happened
