A ROAD TRAVELED

When i awoke to a morning, not yesterday,

Young was i as my first foot steps were learned.

Walked did i into each different day,

The more i traveled, the more i changed.

I learned of words, i saw many things,

The sun i saw rise but now it’s overhead.

The leaves i saw were shaken from the trees,

As the world turned, again the leaves were to be.

Once a young boy played in the snow,

The more he walked, the less the snow would fall.

Sometimes he would see but things could not be seen,

A road traveled so fast, a blind man was he.

He walked very far, a life on his feet,

He’s on his way back, almost home, older than he use to be.

  1. As I get older, I sometimes thinks life has been like your “road traveled so fast”. My Garden is where I see “many things”. Thanks for following my blog.
