We travel though our lives,
The path is there before us.
Along our path others are seen,
Seen diverging from the one
The one we are travelling.
We take a new path,
Walking down this new path
May lead us into despair,
So we see another path,
And love and light are there,
There before us.
This now becomes our new path,
Leading us towards another path,
Which we ignore.
But our path starts to darken
And we are left wondering,
What was along that other path,
Was our life there
Along that untrod path.

A fine write Gold. The path towards my place to hear me singing remains untrodden! No one dares venture that way. lol.
Thanks Orchi. I did tread that path but heard all this wailing so I turned back.
Angela here - Good Morning Uncle Andy - Clinic @ 11pm (weekend accidents !) glad I caught this one ! Love the KOOL JAZZ - Lifts my Spirits for Casualty ! Love the POEM. Shades of FROST *The Road not taken*
I shall be telling this - with a sigh
Somewhere Ages and Ages hence
Two roads diverged in a wood and I -
I took the one less travelled by
And that has made - all the difference !
Esta la Vida - Andy our lives are defined
by the Choices we make & the Paths we take !
Especially the Path up to the Altar ~ AMEN !
Blessings to You & Yours
Love ANGELA & BRIAN 🧡🤍💜
That road less travelled can lead us to wonders of life.
Andy
Enjoyed - we each make our own choices but sadly for some these choices are restricted by external factors.
True Michael but on the whole the paths I have travelled have been good.
Andy
The eternal what if poetically asked. Good poen GF
Very true SC, probably one of the most asked question ever - What if?.
Andy
Why?!
Why cannot be answered. I wonder why?
Thanks for reminding us of life's uncertain choices we make. But that should not dissuade us from seeking our paths, lest some lead us to love. Great write Gold!
Thank you Seek, we should always seek new paths as they may lead us to that love, mine certainly did.
Andy
Despite your words today i think you have an innate and spiritual sense of which paths are right for yourself without too much wondering about wandering.
You know me too well d a, thank you for your kind words.
