The Path

As I walked along the way
   Beside the grand bay
   

   I searched for million ways
   Lest I should  go astray

   Lonely and cold
   Breathless I stand before the hold
   

Where I was so bold
   And almost got sold

    
    The clouds herald their march
     It took many to scratch
    
     Upon the wooden birch
     In sight of a search
     

     For what lay beholden 
     Was not golden 
     
     But for many miles ridden
     That made me emboldened 
     

   Now as I recall that day
      There's nothing coming in the way
    
   For it lies far away
  ...beyond my sway.

Thanks for sharing this... exposing your thoughts through your unique poetic style. Meanwhile, I greet you with the love of the Lord, expressed by John 3:16 of the Bible, "For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life." Be blessed.
