Abhishek Suresh Poet Quatrain

The Path of God Sq

The Path of God

The path of God is a tightrope, walk with caution 
with only belief to keep your balance, but fear not son
in the face of the winds of distraction and discord, that is all you need to cope
walk with caution, the path of God is a tightrope.

The path of God is a maze, walk with purpose
it is easy to get lost in the Stygian puzzle, but He believes in us
faith will enlighten the golden path, before you it lays
walk with purpose, the path of God is a maze.

The path of God is a dark tunnel, walk fearlessly
know that it is seldom taken, only the righteous can see
that truth is your lamp amid the dark, truth only you can channel
walk fearlessly, the path of God is a dark tunnel.

One finds several paths in life, choose wisely my son
I have brought you up well, your golden essence you must not shun
though your journey with traps will be rife
choose wisely my son, one finds several paths in life.
