Take a Walk

 

Take a walk

A walk away

A walk a ways away

And seek these hidden strands of light

These small shadows of joy

That define the solitary places

Closed eyes

That lead to the open road

The crisp

The barren

The empty

                    Open

                              Road

Where white and blue

Meet in mingled violence

Of newness

Stark and fresh

And even the dark places

Are washed in life

    Hi Pete, Loved the poem. It got me thinking about holding my head up high so the small shadows of joy are not missed. Well one thing led to another so, I\’ll leave you with this:Head up and walking on! Head down and low limbs bong. Starry darkness black as night. Knocked out cold in the broad daylight.Oh well, watch where your going out there anyway.j
