At the Horizon

At the horizon There are dreams never explored There are roads never traveled Yet we look at it Has magnetism The power to draw all eyes To that place never explored That road not traveled. We look but remain Is it safety the restraint? Our know of reality? Yet we receive dreams. Can they not be reached? Woe to those fears that rise high Like the walls 'round the City Our minds limited Our spirit confined Yet on we long to be free As we watch birds with envy What then will it take? What to take along? Where will the road take us to? A change of thought's the cure To worry, a fear Kills like a virus Spread upon lies that confine And prevent us from meeting At the horizon.

Mom used to say, "He who hesitates is lost." Fear and worry can prevent many people from living their lives to the fullest. I hope those who need to read this insightful poem do and heed the advice. Your poetry is always remarkable, Caroline! Much love from the Wild Woman
