Turtle Bay, Kahuku. Hawaii

Retirement comes, bringing destinations indeterminate.
New fields
New hills
New roads, Leading I know not where. But go I must.
Strange new sensations lurk in my heart.
Change is upon me! This fiery feeling, a relentless flame,
To move on
To discover anew
To touch the worlds I’ve never known. Is it even too late?
In my gut there is a deep emptiness,
Not for nourishment, But for the life I so loved and cherished. There is a heavy wave of
Loss
Loneliness
Bewilderment Sweeping over me, consuming me.

Where now is my sense of purpose?
