End of The Road
I am used to walking this road all alone,
my footsteps nimbly avoidingĀ each stone,
designed now to catch me, perhaps make me fall
I think IāmĀ the most skilful walker of all
I swim in unfathonableĀ depths in the sea
the waves of mistrust always pulling at me,
butĀ I have a life belt Iām hanging on tight
Iām swimming with dolphins so Iāll be alright
Each day is a mountain that I have to climb,
theĀ peaks are much higher and I have less time,
butĀ my friends are the crampons that power me through,
the summit Iām reaching to share it with you
Lifes journey is hard and not always a breeze.
Some people are lucky and live it with ease.
The others, like me, take a road less well used
and travel through life feeling battered and bruised
But never give in if you look you will see
are sign posts, obscured behind overgrown trees.
They point out the way, though terrain may be rough
andĀ your senses alert you that this might be tough
But tackle that road, you can walk, climb or swim.
JustĀ push through each obstacle and get stuck in.
The line at the end is the winning post goal
andĀ when you get there youāll have refoundĀ your soul.

Stamina, and resolve to further the cause of replenishment, through understanding, of broad " brush-strokes " of living. By, whatever means or code, in whatever condition or conditions.Ā
In stark truth, is freedom, and, power to impress upon all the INFLUENCE of hope, as well as spirited self-appraisal, through learning more than conceived possible, TO GIVE.
TO BE. EVERYTHING TO EVERYONE.
" Amazing Grace " to this. And, respectful tribute.
To the heart, and soul.
THANKS, FOR, THIS.

Grammy. That was gorgeous! I haven't been on much because I've been as sick as a dog(and an ailing dog! Not one of those healthy ones!), but I saw your wonderful presence, and smile, and thought I must read her wonderful words! And I did so, and I was moved(not moved in a sense of going to the...oh forget it!), but moved by the wonderful writing, and the strength, and beauty of my Grammy.Ā
Wonderful write, my friend! (I hope that made sense, because I'm semi-delerious from my 125 degree fever).Ā
You're great!Ā
