The Yellow Brick Road

happy new year to one all all
may the new year bring peace happiness and more
thank you


"the yellow brick road"

some say the yellow brick road is a state of mind
others say it is a place to be and follow
I say the yellow brick road is both well defined

all who seek home a brain a heart or courage
know this path towards light and victory unveil
kept safely within munchkinland's magical storage

strength and beauty soar beyond color or care
imaginative rainbow shades shine and guide
those of munchkinland are committed to share

some say the yellow brick road starts at the beginning
others say it ends when the wizardly journey concludes
I say the yellow brick road forever lies within breathing

We start on the yellow brick road, and we end on the yellow brick road. The in-between is all down to you.

Thank you very much Paul. I'm sorry for this late response. May we all follow the yellow brick road no matter what meaning it has for us. Enjoy the weekend and poetrysoup too.

Yellow brick road or the path to life begins that day we seek to hold the hand of Jesus, when we say I give up walking through the woods getting caught up on all the briers having to cut a trail for each step : ).
