A Long Walk With Time

A Long Walk With Time

I've walked some miles and have not stopped,
Because I haven't found the spot;
I look ahead, at times look back,
I look around, I pause and start.

Then I wonder and ask myself,
Do I remember those I've met?
How many right turns did I make?
Were there left turns or some mistakes?

Of course I'm not a perfect one,
I've surely made some ugly turns;
Along the way there were bad signs,
Weaknesses triumphed many times.

I've also learned to wash the dirt
That I have gathered from my drift;
I felt remorse, cleared them with tears,
I've worn a mask and changed oufits. 

What now do I intend to find?
No wish, no hope for sun to shine.
Old dreams had flown with destined line;
I'm left to drift and walk with time....

Thanks, Papa. I know it's not yet late to see colorful flowers along the way, not the devilish roses. I've stepped on them many times. Anyway, I'm still doing the walk ...Thanks a lot for your appreciation.

Poetry is when an emotion has found its thought and the thought has found words.

Robert Frost (1875-1963) American Poet.
