Worn paths
lie ahead
more than steps
a lifetime of choices
we journey forth in love
sprinkled with
tears of springtime
chilled by
wintertime frost
along the way.
All obstacles
are overcome
then heartbreak and
anger set aside
we learn to grow
stronger with each step
and yet, in this strength
where does it lead?
The next step
in this life
leads to the
journey in the
next.
