Beyond These Roads

Beyond These Roads     1.23.16  

Beyond these roads we travel there lies happiness abundant flowers blooming as yellow birds sing in harmony, beauty without exception.
Time is no longer a factor to be reckoned with she is gone away forever now the pain has been cancelled and paid in full the debt removed, Begin anew.

Magnificent to the eye and pleasant to the touch smiles are everywhere hands reaching for hands to hold to love, anger forgotten a distant memory
Hurting is healed here in the brilliant light darkness defeated having retreated back to unlit arenas, Life a fresh meaning innocence regained.

Morning sky on the dimly lit horizon brings with her a colorful hue of oranges and blues gaining strength, clouds nary a one can you see it?
Breeze refreshing lightly at first feel cool to skin warm from journey’s tiresome and arduous; finally man has found peace tranquility his reward.

Fear being replaced by calmness once thought impossible has happened struggles no longer to be felt, a guest unto himself for so long now over.
Reminders of agonizing days, nights fade from view as he is led down the path of golden oaks and crimson rose’s youth restored a new calling awaits.
