Iridescent Path

Smooth like glass the ground slithers all along The beat goes down the street singing a song Surface delights to even the roughest Slipping, sliding enacting the toughest Colors reflecting all throughout the way Making the wet road seem cold in the day Breaking down the path, hard surface below Open ways to freedom, which shine and glow Not a grey moment is felt here today Sunlight blares and sends the water astray The path still holds its glossy appearance Lending a great image, leaving a trance The path shines with an iridescent sheen Letting us to venture down the best seen

Your poem is absolutely very inspiring and uplifting my very dear friend Russell. I'm having a very wonderful feeling while reading it-extricating all my exhaustion for the day. I'm still @ school, taking my short break & I'm dropping for a while to visit u & ur poetry. I'm already missing your stellar writes. I'm so sorry if I did not frequently visit the soup this wk.
