Poem Title:
Poem
The more popular path is a wider, more windy one. A bend here,a nook there, surreal images to entice everyone.And it's all about havin' so much fun. You weave through a forest of barren trees, having already dropped all of their leaves. More muted colors now, these listless leaves, as they lay scattered all over the ground. During one stretch, a beautiful babbling brook calls softly to all who will listen, a temptuous melodic chant seems to resound. "Come play in me..... no, better yet, stay in me. I am yours and you are mine. At the very least, abide for a time."......is it's echoing rhyme. Around one huge curve on this path, one can't help but notice an extremely tall waterfall.It's splendor captures the undivided attention of nearly all. Chrystal clear liquid cascades, tumbling and rumbling downward over smooth, cavernous rocks till its final resting place in a glassy pool,this entire realm it does mock. One very unique trait of this seemingly joyous journey is the absence of light. Nothing reflects much sun,it's almost like wandering along on a half - moon lit night. Oh,if the star of fire would ever reveal itself,come out of hiding, this beautiful bounty could be so brilliant and bright. Yet here in this place, it wouldn't seem right. It would cause alarm, reason for many to get stagefright. Some might even want to exit but would not be able.... try as they might. I could ramble on and on about the abundant sights and smells and sounds that tickle our senses along Path Pleasing. Is this place for real or is everyone just dreaming? But one thing I must tell you that is important for you to know.This expedition isn't all it's cracked up to be, for it is in dizzying circles you do go.You just experience the same things over and over again, guess that's part of the plan.No real purpose or rhyme, just biding time. Oh,.... what's this? Maybe I am wrong. Seems that there is a final destination for those hangin' here.I've not witnessed this before.I'll have to tell the others what's in store.But wait....... there must be some mistake. For the sign over the gaping, belching, black hole simply states "Lair of the Snake."
