Shortcut To Somewhere I walked not knowing where I was going just knew I needed to settle my mind, I found a road with rolling hills and nature such the paradise I needed so to find. I saw stone walls protecting properties, trees looking like that of father time, flowers blooming a blessing in disguise, birds echoing sweet songs that rhyme. I could have walked this road for eternity me alone with myself walking so free, so many questions I needed answered as nature and it's wonders overcame me. This paved road a shortcut to somewhere now a refuge for me to search my soul, I felt surrounded by all the beauty of life through which I now understand my goal. |

Hey Ali, Thanks for coming and reading my poem, glad you liked it. The view is most beautiful, I felt wonderful. As to being Lost when I joined passions I had just moved to a new state after living in another one all my life, so I was Lost, so that's why I am lost and I think I still semi am. I have always been a Dreamer and always will be.  |

Somebody one said "the key to life is understanding". I never realy knew what he meant...LOL I saw much beneath the surface of this poem. One of your best works (imho). Michael |

Denise: Thank you for reading about my stroll, and yes it very relaxing and very good for the mind, I am almost glad I needed to go walk otherwise I may have not found this road, now I shall walk there everyday and let nature overcome me, what a delight. Michael: Thank you so much, I could not have found the answers to my questions or come to understanding if I had not gone out and become one with nature today, it was marvelous how it made me feel. Ali: I am starting to know my way around, but it is so different, yet much more beautiful. Never lived in the country before, I was a city girl, never realized what I was missing. |

Isn't it great to find some of that inner peace we all seek so desperately ? Loved this poem Gloria. |

I think I've read quite a bit of your work here, but this is par excellence. A wonderful piece, full of nature's detail and your emotional connection with it...just lovely. ~ Claire |
