ROAD

nephilim56 ( Norman Dickson)

This road has been
A winding path
Uneven, rough
Often paved with glass
Sharp corners, turns
Less than kind
Many miles behind
Sometimes sunshine.

Often cold
Many times unheard
I wrapped my frame
In warming words
Many loves
Along the way
Often hurt
What more to say.

I travel still
To each bend
The guiding hand
Of fate transcends
What lies beyond
The next crossroads
I do not know
What life beholds.

    Life as a road with its bends and inability to see what is ahead. Well written

    My friend, I’ve known roads like this myself…the kind where you keep moving without fully knowing what waits around the next bend. That mix of hurt, endurance, and quiet acceptance comes through clearly here. It feels reflective without losing hope. Beautifully done, Norman. 🌹🖤🙏🕯️🐦‍⬛

    Ahh, that'll be the road where you never get to the next crossroads, as the bus never arrives! lol.

    Fine words Norman, that road will take you to a wonderful place.
