“that inner journey starts the day we're born . . . we pray the road be worthy, fully worn” _by poet life becomes an inner journey one which we shape and travel birth to death that's semi-planned and influenced by circumstances that direct and form our youth yet at some stage the journey's up to us to then complete the steps . . . but signs are missing from our view and so our moving on comes from within sometimes it leads to a dead end . . . to start and plan again the path we take genetics sometimes lies in wait to spring its inborn path and moves us to a road we recognize as so familiar in our genes . . . but many times there is no guide to lead us on and we must follow roads that suit us best a task that is not simple but with diligence that journey we create to travel through the years . . . we hope presents a fulfilled lifetime in the end
