TAKE ME
TO THE END OF THE ROAD!
I'll walk the road from dawn till dusk In shoes
Of black,
In the morning darkness my quest begins, but not alone.
By my side stand those who come as strength and power,
Hour by hour I'll trek along Into the street seeking
What's lost.
Understand, my mission to this point In life Is to
Conquer,
Fight a battle that has not been with eyes seen but
The heart.
Hurt and anger, a smile of hope, will guide this
Searching man,
A rainbow of fantasy, a treasure chest Imagined
In a dream.
Walk with me brother and sister, friends' and
Strangers,
All that gather, show that you care, hold your fist
To the sky.
Stand with me In the cold of the mornings' rising
Lend me your courage until my day Is done, this our day.
If I should fall then lift me up, If I do stumble then
Words will comfort,
Take me to the end of the road, take me to the end
Of the road.
Keith Garrett

This poem filled me with emotion and I wanted to be there if you fell! This poem made me travel!
It was my 50-mile walk I did in Monrovia CA. Thanks for reading.
