To Travel the Unknown

The morning breaks and sun doth smile
I trod the path and take a mile
And in the wayside of the lane
I pause for 'while and breathe within.

When noon time came I found a hut
With thought of nap I come inside
And lo! my friend it stinks and rot
So I left the place with face dismayed. 

Though scorching heat, I took my step
I passed some folks along the road
Some offered a bed to sleep
Some told me I'm a toad. 

I dropped and fell into my knees
And upon the ground I raised my hand
To ask His aid upon my need
A friend did came and helped me stand. 

So I hit the road with hope within
That at the end there'll be an inn
To drink and eat a sweetest cream
It fuels me like a dream!

My soul was weary for the road is long
And came the man and give me ride
We passed the valley, we passed the hills
With terrible road but sturdy wheels
The going gets rough but he stayed along
That's when I knew I'll cling his side
Until the sun will fade and die!

Stephany, I do not know if there is truly love at first sight, but I do know that without kindness and commitment love can not grow. A lovely poem you have written.

Kindness and commitment nurtures love and strengthen bonds. I so agree with you. It's a pleasure of mine you dropped off a kind comment. ~~ stef
