Alternate Paths

ALTERNATE PATHS 11/11/ 21 
BY LYDIA BRESCIA

My eyes are leaking out the sorrow of a pain 
deep within. Letting go of a passion boldly waved 
before me like a matador teasing a bull. 

It was a Probable reality rich with satisfaction 
and Value Fulfillment trying to actualize
with Not Enough Fuel....
offering a glimpse of untold Joy mixed with Lessons. 

Not chosen-an empty Pathway leading to some 
Other reality, not mine!
That one was for someone else to try! 

Then Hope opened another doorway 
leading to some other reality an
even more Joyful probability...
This one ready to come into being!

This one, Ahhh.... includes all that's needed 
to surpass the joys and pleasures and passions
even glimpsed in the un-created path! 
These Lessons were learned with 
Fun and abundance!

This alternate path has a Door
to the Universe Within! <3
