Fork In the Road

Walking down an adventurous street,
A fork in the road is a treachurous feat.
Hit this for you now must wonder, 
Take the left or walk the other.
For one leads to pain and misery,
Yet the other love and charity.
You pick a road and see it's a mistake,
For this is not the road to take.
Hop over to the other path,
Walk along you completed your task.

Hi John, A beautiful sentiment you pen here! I wrote a poem called fork in the road too! You might enjoy it. Enjoyed reading yours. Sounds like you're soul searching. I was wondering if it was going to turn into a vision quest ha! Take care, Love Light Truth Patricia
