Poem: Road
By: Donovan Baldwin
Where leads this beckoning road,
This silent, time-worn street?
Does it lead to secret places, where
Angels and demons meet?
Or, does it fade with forward steps,
And slowly cease to be?
Perhaps it reaches unknown lands,
Which I am doomed to see.
For I can never long ignore,
Nor allow my steps to turn,
From each strange path to somewhere,
And the something I must learn.
Where leads this beckoning road,
This silent, time-worn street?
Does it lead to secret places, where
Angels and demons meet?
Or, does it fade with forward steps,
And slowly cease to be?
Perhaps it reaches unknown lands,
Which I am doomed to see.
For I can never long ignore,
Nor allow my steps to turn,
From each strange path to somewhere,
And the something I must learn.
