Life's Journey

In a walk through life's journey
Among the million grains of sand
the world is filled with troubles
Sometimes getting us down.

The journey may not always be smooth
It does not always go with a flow
Time and place can change in minutes
Depending where we are in that moment

No one can walk your pathway
You take that route alone
Life comes with no promises
You walk the sands of time alone.

My senses in totality are in awe of your wonderful lines. Liquefied bliss from the boil of glorious words has brought out enchanting aroma beyond scaling. 7 is simply an underscore for this fine share.

Life's journey is largely what you make of it, yet there is that worldly evil that stems from mankind as a whole that seeks to do you harm at almost every turn in the road my friend. Best if one walks the straight and narrow= with few turns! Enjoyed your poem, food for thought!
