Subject: WALKING LIFE'S ROAD

WALKING LIFE'S ROAD


I dreaded the idea
of walking life's road alone,
but I had no choice, so I thought
and set forth, wondering
what she might offer,
or take from me.

Just in case,
I packed a solid load of memories
to nibble on along the way.

Then I felt something as the wind
whisper, not unkindly:
"I've taken many such a road:
the trick is to let go
the relentless, restless, hands of time.
Lighten up – let go the past:
it cannot bring "back"
what it never had!

Oh, and something else
you may find of use when aloneness
pokes her gnarled finger at your heart:
you're never alone!
But if you forget, never mind:
I'll ruffle your hair by and by."
