"Not the Destination"
1973
by Harmon Everett


          




  

NOT THE DESTINATION

The journey is important,
Not the destination.

The goal, the cause, the purpose
May be our motivation.
But we spend our lives --
We spend our time and effort,
Our grace, our character;
We spend our passion
Along the way.
We spend
-- Us --
On the journey,
Not the destination.
