Navigating Through Life's Highway

My navigation seems as though toward eternity, Though I'm alone, I could feel an unknown fraternity; Surrounding the highway, both sides, are beautiful greenbelts, While passing the mountainous paths from peaks rocks soft snow melts...! I started alone from the darkness of obscurity, Fate, midst kith and kin, has been my constant security; Each season of summer, spring, autumn, winter, and monsoon, I've been moving through a grand universal rhythmic tune...! The path is not, always, symmetrically straight and smooth, Scenes and landscapes do not always, sensory organs sooth; Turns, twists, terrifically tricky titanic tunnels, Hills and mountains that resemble black brown and grey funnels...! Graves like Pits, ditches, drenches, potholes, and patch-ups pop up, Dogs, cats, cows, donkeys, horses, and even wild beasts mix up; Wrong-side, drunk, speedaholic, wreckless, and ruthless drivers, Men and women who ignore signals and road-dividers...! My aim, midst these, like a river toward the sea, is clear, Day or night winter or summer, I have nothing to fear; Humans or animals I meet, good or bad, I confront, I drive ahead, calm and quiet, fighting each battlefront...!!! 21 January 2023 Pick-A-Title, Vol 34 - Poetry Contest Sponsored by: Edward Ibeh

Hi Alex, missed reading your poems. I have always said, that hie like being in the front line of fire, during war, you have to drive defensively, if aggressively, you might as well go to war. Hugs and blessings, Jennifer.
