Description
There I was out walking
On a journey with no end
I could walk till the sun don't shine
Or rivers never bend
Looking for some shelter
For a broken mind to mend
Counting signs and river rocks
With no control of reason
I mock the trail left behind
As it changes with each season
Thinking if I lost my way
It was the tree's fault from treason
Watching as the green grass
Mingled with the weeds
Whose territory was turning bare
From lack of healthy seeds
And the grass just grew weaker
From fear of having needs
Onward as I thought in strands
Of things that didn't relate
Imagining what could be seen
Was just left up to fate
Or my control over mutiny
When the mind starts to debate
A lone lemming traveling
On a path that doesn't fit
Giving it a strange name
In hopes it won't be missed
It's all a part of thinking hard
Of things that don't exist
..........
How can we see the sunrise
Till we pass the sunset
We

I'm on a road less travelled myself. I've seen that behind every good thing there's been some kind of pain. It's after the pain that we see a new road that we haven't walked yet. I always feel like singing your poems and look forward to your postings. Best wishes to you.

I'm not sure which I enjoy more: Your writings or your brilliant artworks. Like salt and pepper, each serves the other in harmonic balance. T.P.
