Someone's Journey
There was an initial
step taken
unsteady and unsure.
In time the pace increased
as curiosity endured.
Once adept and confident
the toddler ventured
on much longer treks.
In the light of day
youthful strides of wonder
lasted until sunset.
At adolescence with effort moving along
on the fun-filled futuristic trail.
Supposedly toward
an independent path
if no misfortune prevailed.
Unaware rescuers
stood by for escape
from a solemn immobile lane.
By now confused and weary
from an unending road of strain.
Teen kitty conditioned
for beguiling wolves
roaming the mean streets.
Detoured to the
lost byway
for a fatalistic defeat.
In the nick of time a majestic reclamation
occurred from heaven's boulevard.
To ensure a journey much smoother
where life
failed to be so hard.
