Greatest Adventure

Wallace Dean LaBenne

The greatest adventure
we could hope to find
is the exploration of a brilliant mind.

The greatest adventure
we could want to start
is the exploration of a tender heart.

The greatest adventure
we could set as goal
is the exploration of an upright soul.

The greatest adventure
we could seek as such
is the exploration of a friendly touch.

The greatest adventure
we could realize
is the exploration of what's in the eyes.

The greatest adventure
we could ever know
is the exploration of a human glow.
