Life's Walkway

The quick sands collapse within abyss invited by airless darkness where marshy reeds slither, escape routes entangled as hazard paves life’s walkway for the destiny to saunter. Weary steps uncalculated falter wobbly pace uncontrolled dither, the sands and the reeds wait for the traveller to arrive tired of walking a long while life’s rough walkway. The survival game begins in the arena life bounces struggling hard to win until the time comes to join the farewell party waiting. Destiny is not an excuse the walk is one’s own walk, the pathway lighted or dark the inner lamp decides, caving in or girdling the garden the inner vision conceives. A special sanctum of sanctity the lamp lighter needs and the vision maker seeks to walk life to the brink of bliss. April 1, 2021 Contest : All Yours (Apr 2) Sponsor : Brian Strand
