+*+*+*+*+*+*+*+*+*+
My Path does wend through weeds and streams,
And scales up mountains high.
It meanders through the woodlands low,
Then climbs to glorious sky.

It leads me into waters deep,
Where I fear that I will drown.
Then sunlit road will lead me up
To dry and higher ground.

My Path at times flows like a river,
Then the rapids flip me over.
Though soon I'm lead to sunny meadow,
~ Sweet with fragrant clover.

I'm not one to stay a course,
For I explore in all directions.
Travelling roads less seldom trod,
~ Experiencing new inflections.

~*~

Around and around, and around I go,
Some roads high, some roads low.
At times I'm struck between to and fro,
~ But I'm forever learning as I go.
+*+*+*+*+*+*+*+*+*+

Earth Angel,
May you travel through the love and pain
With a halo as your weather vane
And watch the souls of buterflies
Within the day and night time skies
May you drink a teas eternity
And tell us where forever be.

Mr. Tumbleweed ~

You would make a marvellous tumbling companion! Travelling is so much more enjoyable when it is done with a friend!

Thank you for such a lovely poetic reply, Sweet Sigh!

I too travel as you, and lessons are learned, sometimes wisdom is earned, yes?  Safety lay in knowing how to take the curves

Happiness isn't something that happens to you, it's created from within you.  Joy is a state of mind.

As long as your learning then the path will show it's beauty.  Very nice flow to this one and very much liked the message it holds.
