Join me in the
Five Minute Friday Challenge hosted by Lisa-Jo Baker. Participants write for 5 minutes
with no editing, no over thinking, and no backtracking. This week’s word is: View.
(Go)
The view from
here seems rather daunting
With all its
unknown twists and turns.
This path that
I have never trodden,
Looms large and
dark with things unsure.
Will it be a
happy journey?
Or will its
burdens drag me down
To depths of
strength I’ve not yet found?
The view from
here might overwhelm me
If I should sit
and dwell upon
The muddy
puddles sure to spring up
And catch me
without my gumboots on.
The view from
here might overcome me
If I just look
straight ahead.
But turning
round I soon discover
One beside me,
taking my hand.
He will walk
this passage with me
And I will not
be alone.
Should troubles
come I need not worry
He will guide
me to the end.
(Stop)
Now, your
turn…
The path ahead is always scary, and instead of enjoying the walk, I always seem to long for a map.
