The Pathway

.

I walk the path from A to B

There is no end that I can see

I clamber o’er boulders along the way

But cannot allow myself to stray

I follow the straight and narrow road

Keeping the image in my mind

My gaze, my eyes

Fixed on the prize

About adeeyoyo

I am a middle-aged South African woman, living in Johannesburg. I began writing poetry towards the end of May 2010. I love animals – sometimes more than people!

    This exactly echoes how I felt today, Denise. Although the prize seems very distant and almost a dream….

    “SOME FOLK GET THERE EASY

    Some folk get there easy,
    Some folk get there slow.
    But God is standing back to back
    And there’s nowhere else to go.”

    – From The Book Of Guff

    That’s the only way to do it, Adee

    Even if the pathway is crumbling beneath our feet that prize keeps us going. It’s so important!
