Could Be Anywhere...

Stepping On

Wheels within life
roll on, roll on, roll on
taking, giving, ever turning.
Cycles buried in circles
myriad pathways, directions
pushed, pulled, choosing choices.

Seeker steps along
ghosts snatch, grab
whispered incitement.
Golden path gleaming
shadowed, clear, hidden
eyes allowed to wander.

Steady steps forward
feet forced straight ahead
path sometimes unseen.
Each step a victory
laughing, mostly a mystery
keep keeping on and on.

A definition of faith
one would possibly consider
knowing unknown, unseen, unsure.
Supported by a bare glimpse
rarely; golden vision, clear and pure
one foot up, one foot down...stepping on.

Daniel~
I found this delightful, especially considering that it's BIKE WEEK in nearby Daytona Beach~

Oh man ... what I wouldn't give to take another turn on the Honda Gold Wing ... holding on to the same goodlooking fella of a few years ago !!!

Thanks for the memories~

I love your poetry.  The first time I read one of your poems, the obivious pops out to me...then on second reading, it's as though a totally different story comes out.  Maybe it's just me that sees the layers *hugs* Either way, wonderful write.  Thank you for posting it.
