! Road Far And Wide

Rating: 2.9


Found a road, far and wide,
With sight of hope and new pride,
Lighting the spirit of lost light,
Retrospection, learning from the past
Ages on your back, as bag of deeds
Follows through, even you don't need;

Unknown path, needing a guide,
Not any persona, a conscious prod,
Dark and deep to loose in hide,
Never wait, the time and tide,
Seeking Heart good old friend,
Finding buzz of bliss in solitude;

For a passerby, waiting in vain,
May be lovely woman or man,
Deserted in dawn, morn and noon,
Lonely though all in the brain,
Memories linger seeing someone,
Long ago when the villain was slain;

Heap of load of thought and deeds,
Some good, some bad, some worth indeed,
Memories worthy come when need,
Future in smiles, Past with the wind,
Long life's journey, twist and bend,
Learn lesson, to be humble and kind;

the inherent rhythm makes this poem very readable. it has a well sustained metaphor reminding me of robert frost's on a similar theme with a difference. on the whole, the poem reflects philosophical thought on life and living...

'as we embark on the long journey carrying the keepsakes of the done leaving the traces beneath the sun gathering self and memories, whole living nonetheless, telling stories told, untold....'' Deep and thoughtful... thanks Mr. Vidyadhar for sharing...
