Moving On
Moving On
Days darkened, shadows followed memories I could not escape.
Streets I knew well, seemed to shift under the weight of my heart.
Songs, that once lifted me on Angels Wings, now bury my soul
with regret.
By chance, I found friends who gave me hope! Walt Whitman, Robert Bly,
Carl Sandburg and Robert Frost, brought expressions of life,
found in their poems. Suddenly my world seemed brighter! Flowers
nodded in thanks at my words! Streams rushed by with excitement
when I wrote of their journey! stars above me blinked with joy!
And invited me to share in their dreams!
As long as I can hold this pen…….Never shall I travel alone!
Never,
Shall I travel alone!
