THE HIGHEST ROAD
~ Linda L. Dowd ~


+*+*+*+*+*+*+*+*+*+
I feel so young and vibrant,
As tho’ I could live forever.
Knowing that I’ll succeed,
In whatever I endeavor.

It’s not that I am arrogant,
I’m simply glad I’m me.
I do my best at all I do,
And with a conscience free.

I tend to trek the highest road,
Tho’ there be times of balking.
Learning as I go along,
And walk the words I’m talking.
+*+*+*+*+*+*+*+*+*+

Can you imagine how great this world would be if more people made such a resolution? *S* I like this very much, my friend...

If I were graceful enough, I'd give a curtsey to both you and Sunshine... but... considering my klutziness... and how uncomfortable traction can be... I'll settle for a double thumbs up! *G*
