       The paths of life

The paths of life ever bend,
Some are short, some never end.
Each one is a show and tell,
Each one has a wishing well.

Some are full of joy and light,
Some pass through the gloom of night.
Some titillate the edge of dreams,
Some are made of dogma beams.

They all ring a bell of chime,
They all last a given time.
All will open and close a door,
All will enter forevermore.

The paths of life ever bend,
Some are short, some never end.
Each one is a show and tell,
Each one has a wishing well.

And the other will save your soul.

Seymour~
I JUST LOVE SHOW AND TELL.
Life's no mystery ...
seen through your eyes.
Bending into life ...
I like the very idea.
Love ya' ~*Marge*~

When, as a young girl, I would chance to sketch a scene, it was always of a road, and a wishing well.  Now you've given me the words to put the with the picture.  Thank you Sy.
