Road of Life

by dejohnsrld (Debbie)

Road of Life
 
Along the road of life
are many possibilities
beauty of a perfect rose
cold hard granite of indifference
melodic babbling of a brook
mud and sinkholes to get stuck in
majestic swan on a pond
torrential rains of sorrow
colored spectrum of a rainbow
boulders blocking the way
morning dew in a meadow
 prickly thorns of pain
forks in the road to explore
winding paths of uncertainty
songbirds singing sweetly
tornados of tragedy
fresh scent of lilacs in spring
the first freeze of the season
beauty of trees in autumn
the wicked cold of growing old
quietude of twinkling stars
frustration of severe flooding
serenity and peace with acceptance
life is always uncertain
an array of opportunities
lead to endless possibilities
resist focusing on negative
gratitude for all that is good
&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&
