Two were the roads
ready before eyes
desires were the loads
to touch more skies!
Frost was lucky,
the selection was quick;
but I too was fluky
just one more to stick.
Yes!
Digital path
the most travelled,
and the water way
the less selected.
Confided to enter
the rarely chosen,
mind at its centre
had not broken.
Hence were the sails
I had in miles
came around the world
like little Columbus
Mini voyages and
more discipline -
turned my life
blue and white
that is simply
Calm and quiet!
I guard the coast
with true passion,
have more to boast
about my Indian ocean!
Author notes
The roads traveled by my little Columbus(my hubby) before choosing his carrier as Officer in Indian Coast Guard!
