JOURNEY OF A LIFETIME
left turns, right turns
and U-turns
roundabouts, turnarounds
and fly-overs
on-ramps, exits
and merge lanes
smooth roads, bumpy roads
and roads under construction
mapped-out trips, spontaneous joy riding
and detours
all part of my path to today,
the journey of a lifetime

Good one, PW. Salute.
Here in VT we have the highest %age of unpaved roads. Sometimes I feel pretty unpaved myself.
Journey on, my friend.

Yes! This speaks to me. You captured so much of the directions a life can take, and they all add up to a life. Beautiful, and well crafted.

I started with more words “explaining” the left/right turns, etc., but realized the words themselves spoke volumes…so I thought of a few more. Glad you liked it.

I’m grinning. That is fun. I like that kind of list poem. It’s fun to write, as well as read.
