it is all so precious
even this gray, steel gray morning
with it's mist that is cutting thru the bone

we are here today because we are all voyageurs
advancing along a path that is both unknown
and yet centuries older than humankind

oh, we tread upon virgin ground that has given witness
to the march of ancient tribes and still we marvel
at the first breath of a newborn. then we weep
when the child within us progresses
thru this temporal plain we call life
so it may achieve the promise of infinity

we are so unique. none of us the exact same
as the other. and, yet within this existence we seek
that familial opportunity to rejoice and mourn together
as if our very lives, our personal and private experiences
were one and the same with all other. and, they are

upon this day and all days forward
may I wish you and yours the confidence
the comfort, the knowing that all is well
and, as it should be

we are all voyageurs advancing
along a path that is both known and unknown
it is centuries older than humankind
and, it is just now being borne

you are the child of humanity
