M. L. Kiser Poet Tanka

Your Road Map

In the heavens, signs
Tell of many lives to come;
The road maps of life.
Laying out our life journey’s,
Cosmic biographies planned.

We follow our maps
And life can work very well;
Successes building
To life’s crescendo, ring out
In congratulations song.

The signs mark well the 
roads and turns upon life’s path;
Each one the ramp to
Adventurous interstates
No toll fees, just your Birth right.

Carolyn Devonshire January 13, 2019 at 10:32 AM When at a crossroad in life, I always pray for help in choosing the right path. I admire the way you make these decisions seem so clear. Indeed, it's our right to choose. Nicely done tanka, M.L. Best wishes, carolyn M. L. Kiser January 13, 2019 at 12:53 PM Thanks Carolyn, I try but, as with all poetry, not everyone understands and then there are those who each get something different, every time they read a poem.

Caren Krutsinger January 13, 2019 at 10:26 AM As I believe we have many many life journeys, this appealed to me in so many ways, M.L. Especially this line: "Laying out our life journey’s," Beautiful! M. L. Kiser January 13, 2019 at 12:52 PM So do I but, I wanted to tackle one at a time.
