Taking small steps
Slow steps
Only baby steps

Shuffling blindly forward
Could become disoriented
Travel light
For the trek is long

Perhaps
In the end
Passed trifling times
Beyond brilliant pictures
Given by prices paid high

Performance becomes clear
Ideals stand firm
Before loss

Suppose it does
Possibly profitable?
For the trek is long
If only seeming so…

Only
Only if steps
They falter

Choices
Many to consider

Freedom
Between the lines

Beauty
Surrounding the
It is the shadow

“Come,” says trek
“For I know”

Sight
Is what the
Shadows see

So,
I go traveling.
Imagination took me
Again.
For the treck is long


Nowhere, Nowhere
At All

Better it is to take baby steps before striding blindly onward.  Joyce
