Mike Gentile Poet Sijo

All Roads Lead To Home

The choices made along the path of life’s unique design
        will take us places, strange and foreign, sometimes we’re afraid
our differences confuse us, we often lose our way

If we could only understand that each and everyone
must travel long in search of comfort, then perhaps we’d know
          we’re so much more alike than not and all roads lead to home

Susan Lawrence January 7, 2022 at 7:42 AM Mike, We are mirrors of one another...holding hands in our journeys to home. Our voices if we could all speak would whisper that we are one. Love this. Happy new year. Susan :) Mike Gentile January 7, 2022 at 9:21 AM Thank so much Susan and Happy New Year xxoo

Charles Messina January 4, 2022 at 6:19 AM Wonderfully said, Mike. We are all more alike than we think. I truly think everyone is unsure of the paths they choose to travel. As long as one follows their heart, the road to home will be a pleasant journey. Thanks for sharing! -CM Mike Gentile January 4, 2022 at 8:26 AM Thanks so much Charlie!!
