I stand before 2 roads
Hoping it will lead me to my yellow brick
road
Eventually leaving me at my dream
destination
Only that I don’t have a dream or a
destination
Let alone a way to reach the way to reach it.
Maybe life isn’t about reaching a happy
place
It is about being happy whilst while we
reach it.
The only way to know for sure is by walking the path and
not forgetting to
enjoy the breath taking view.
Look straight~like the eyes of god.
( The object of this challenge is to write a poem in no more than 10 lines. Frame of reference is 'The Cross-roads' quoted from Kwesi Brew's poem, The Mesh. For Imaginary Gardens with Real Toads)
"It is about being happy whilst while we reach it." I think that is a very wise statement. Lovely thoughts.

ReplyDeleteThis is such a valid observation about life.
I'm like you, I never really had a dream destination. I just went where the doors were open (and the dog led?).
