Walked a Mile

She stopped her car and walked a mile Finding a place familiar but new Shortest jog through the mist and fog Reminds her of a younger day when cares of life did not exist, as if they ever had to Finest items anywhere, selection grand Some old some new, but all the quality transcending time itself She gathered a basket of all that spoke of her By thought alone to carry home Why return when all of meaning surrounds her? She was upset to know she could not stay and carry-on among this place, the cost to remain too high Around she must return and continue on her way She bundled as many memories as she could To double back the mile away, rejoin the forlorn car and continue on her way again But since that day the story goes out to all whom she knows to quickly recount that fateful morn she choose to stop the car and found the special place one mile way Each time to touch a memory renews her hope to travel on and once again encounter such a lovely place to stay
