For grand adventures
For pleasant vacations
For quick get-aways and long go aways
And leave it all behind or take it all with you
May your steps be sure
And your miles safe

May each foot settle on solid ground
And eyes up see a beckoning path
For world trekkers or time travelers
Across mountains of stone
Or hills and valleys of years and days
Through space or decades

Through desert crossings
Of sand or mind
May you make your connections
And arrive each evening
Satisfied and exhausted
At that day’s stop

Memories in your bag
Dirt in your shoes.
Make plans to guide you
Let surprises delight you
Friendly strangers meet you
Cozy rooms greet you

For all who wake the journey’s begun
Rise, rested and ready
Get your things
Hand on the door
Much to do
Off you go
