The Winding Road
The Winding Road
She walked a winding road, encompassed by dark trees,
at first, with apathy and deep thoughts far away;
but soon stopped short with consternation as the breeze
whispered unearthliness in such unnatural sway.
Two paths appeared...her predilection was to veer,
with reverence, towards the right, which made it clear...
God's grace spared condemnation of her life that day.
