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

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

A milestone of the heart
May be but a disguise
Tis the spirit of its knowledge
And whispers of the wize.

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

M Rene Riel
