Path of life


I wake each morn’ and walk my life,
And hope my path don’t lead to strife,
The decisions which I choose to make
Affect my mood and the path I take

I wake each morn’, take dog for walk,
And hear people moan as they talk
People look at me as I pass them by
I stare right back and wonder why?

And then one day as I walked my life
I met my daughter, son and wife
I saw the house where I would live
The wedding ring that I would give

I continue on and walk life some more
Another day, another door,
My children grow and leave their home
And all the safety they have known

Then as they grow, they bring to me,
A grandson to bounce upon my knee
The feeling of walking this life through time
Makes me say “Thank you” for this life of mine

very nice work... nice to see someone grateful and content...nicely expressed emotions! take care, janet marie

 ...every moment of every day...
your still with me in every way.
every poem and song...
every rhyme and verse...
your still here...like a beautiful curse.
your my inspiration, your my fire...
your words fill me with poetic desire.
Every moment of every day...
your still with me in every way.

I love you, always.*

This poem is enough to make the most depressed person on the planet enjoy life, Life has a mysterious cycle, you never know what's to come, or how it will turn out, your's seems quite pleasant.
nice work

Steve~
This is lovely and nostalgic.
I think your reflections mirror
the thoughts of many of us.

I love those kinds of walks. We take those when we look through the photo albums.
Well done
Liz
