They guide me
Through the narrow channels
They help me avoid
Life’s rocky shoals
Some beacons inspire me
To explore
The untravelled roadways
They help me overcome
Life numbing caution
Some beacons inspire me
To explore
The untravelled roadways
They help me overcome
Life numbing caution
It reminds me
That I am a small being
Existing within
Something greater than myself
In the desert
I strip myself
Bare of conceit
Bare of ego
Sure, when opportunity knocked
I answered the door
But opportunity doesn’t always knock
Sometimes, I just leave the comfort of my own home
Sometimes
That
Is all
I need
Side-trips provide
Opportunities for insight and growth
Some windows allow the light in
But obscure its source
Not all doors can be opened
And it is unwise to walk through
Every door that does
The line is just a moment in time
Created over time
And this moment
Is simply a snapshot
Time enough
My phone says
For the walk
