Detour of His Heart

 

Detour of His Heart

 

All the signs said,  “DETOUR.”

as he followed for nearly an hour

and ended a block away from 

where the two of them had begun.

 

But if he hadn’t seen those signs

he would surely have died 

crashed off the bridge’s end

never to be seen again.

 

Signs, such as; when he went straight to her voice-mail.

He kept calling but to no avail.

When she finally called him… late

she wanted only to break their date.

 

Now, how he thanks those signs.

Signs of all kinds

like when she went away

and didn’t say where, he was blessed that day.

 

The final sign - “DANGER - TURN AROUND”

put his feet back on the ground

saved his heart from another disaster.

Met someone, now his heart’s beating faster.
