Trail To Tomorrow This path that runs ahead of me, Seems, somehow, steeped in mystery. Perhaps because the shadows sway From trees, that lean across the way. Or maybe, because little light Illuminates this somber sight. My feet upon the trail are slow. I look ahead and wish to know Just what might lie beyond each bend And should I follow to the end, Will I be pleased with what I see? Does disappointment wait for me? Now, as I walk along it's clear, There is a symbolism here, For like the path of life, I tread, Not knowing what may lie ahead! Betty Lou Hebert |

Oh this is wonderful. You do a great job of taking the reader on this little trail and then leaving us with a great deal of food for thought. I really enjoyed every word of this remarkable poem. Hugs from June x |

Dear June; thank you so much for your kind remarks. I did have an advantage as I was looking at a picture while writing this. I hoped the poem would stand without it!! Love Betty Lou Betty Lou Hebert |

Trillum, I don't reply as often as I should..but I really enjoy your postings. This one struck a deep chord in my heart. It's too true that some forests paths leave us wondering whats around the next corner...the same as life does. Thank you for sharing it with us. BWA |

Dear Betty Lou, What a wonderfully written poem! Although the paths we take through life are uncertain and scary at times, there are also paths of joy and little blessings which illuminate our lives. Love, Patricia 'When you find a dream within your heart, don't ever let it go. |
