Pathway

Every once in a while 
someone unexpected
who comes into your life
will impact it in every way
the reason why is unclear
they make a strong impression
some will come for a  while
some will stay a couple years
others will stay a lifetime
through all these you learn
to live, to grow, to love
to walk the road, unknown
but you gain knowledge
guiding your steps
along the pathway called life.

I try to be that person but don't know if I deserve the recognition you give.

Lovely Phyl and well said. I once read somewhere that H.D. Thoreau said, "Every man is my superior in that I may learn from him." Good stuff here. God Bless, JB
