Just Around the Corner

Don't ask a country man for directions 
He will always say " it's not too far, just around the corner”
I turned 10 corners and l still haven't reach my destination yet 
I made the mistake to ask another thinking I must misunderstood what the first had said 

" You’re just a stone throw away ...just around the corner …you can’t miss it “
I put a smile on my face and realized I was in for another long ride 
After 4 corners, I started wondering if I missed that corner 
Don't ask a country man for directions ,he has no clue about distance 

Well after 20 corners I was finally at that corner ...what a ride ...Shake my head
Don't ask a country man for directions
