I enjoy wandering off the beaten path
not knowing the path taken
nothing pressing
no schedule
moving slowly
stopping often along the way
listening to forest life
melting into nature
problems seem moot
Pressure cooker, atom split
Shoehorn forcing souls to fit
Public takes no prisoners
if your drummer's different.
Veering off the beaten path,
throw my shoes, no ounce of wrath
Although it's easier on the feet,
I would rather have blisters...
Form:
A shadow falls over the ruins.
As the path leads her to where
She wants to go.
The adventures played out
In her mind.
Heading off the beaten path
Is what she read about
so many times.
In search of hidden gems
That sparkled and shined.

it’s off the beaten path
this adventure she’s living
her courage and imagination
an effervescent passion
her mom can’t fathom
and follows her
accomplishments
with pure delight
and silently wishes
she could somehow
grow wings on her own

“Come aside and rest awhile,”
Said the Master to His disciples one day.
He chose a spot off the beaten path,
And led them along a “different” way.
Sometimes He says to each of us
As we busy ourselves with many “things,”
“Come aside with me and rest awhile.”
When we obey the Master, Oh what peace it brings!
Far off the beaten path,
There is an endless sky,
Filled with glittering diamonds,
The swollen moon,
Casts its yellow glow,
Over the rolling hills,
That stretch,
As far as the eye can see.
Insects hum in harmony.
The wind,
Swinging from a willow branch,
Whispers it's praise
To the nights peaceful melody.
I wonder if I’m the only one
who smells the fetidness
of dead daylilies,
carrion that lies concealed
off the beaten path.
Could it be my preoccupation with death lately?
Reviewing my will, perusing my prepaid
funeral expenses and life insurance,
that have acutely enhanced
my sense of smell for the morbidities
of death.
It’s not a pleasant state of mind
to live with and act unconcerned
concerning the inevitable conqueror worm.
