A Trip Through Life

I'm headed on a journey through Life's rigid roads Where it may lead me No one knows But as i travel, I'll pass the City of Sorrow and Pain In the center of this town Is a place called Lonely Lane Then i will pass the Poor Palace That is slowly sinking in the Sea of Sadness What will be next? What will i find? I see a town called Peaceful Pleasures At the borderline This town can unlock my hopes In the Field of Dreams I then can take a dip In Success Stream Next, I'll take that detour Onto Determined Drive Take a left on Able Avenue And I will strive As i keep going I see the House on Happy Hill Soon I'll reach the School of Lessons Learned But there's more to see still So I'll just keep going And see where it leads There are many twists and turns Ahead of me I will continue down Life's road Soon I'll know my destiny And if I choose the right path I'll have succeeded in Life's journey

I know this journey very well, plus the lonely lane, Jamie , Stopping by with a nice, sweet Welcome to Poetry Soup. I will find much delight, in reading and in time become familiar with your way of writing. But, for the mean time, I will greet you with the same smile, other poets passed when I first join the soup 4 years ago. I wish you the best when it comes to your poems. I hope you get to meet all the nice poets around here. Starting with me. SKAT :-) Please drop a hello and tell me a little about yourself if you like. I would like to be your newest poetry soup "FRIEND". Hugs* SKAT"
