What use is tread where footfalls frequent,
go bravely down that unknown trail.
For the truth be known unseasoned,
in hidden forest where mysteries dwell.
........................................*
Sequestered , a soul grows too weakened.
Knowing meager treasure lies ahead.
If this life is absent of exploration,
one might as well be the living dead!
........................................*
A risk you take is worth the journey,
down an obscured fog laden trail.
Such is the famous fabled stories,
of new exciting treasure veiled.
........................................*
Devoid and cold the trail dies slowly,
in the knowing of a well beaten path.
Sweet memories are made in the going,
on surprising paths untraversed at last.
........................................*

"Do not go where the path may lead, go instead where there is no path and leave a trail."

At the end you use a quote from one of my favorite authors. Your words are so lovely and so true, one must dare to seek the unknown only then will they find what they may be looking for.
