The Future Poem by Philip Vincent Sanders

Looking into the vast plains that are the future
I wonder …….. what will be?
Crossroads that have been reached … decisions to be made
Which road should I take …. Which highway to follow?
The day is peaceful and my life drifts by in thoughts
Clouds of memories ………. Good and bad
The way ahead uncertain… as it will always be
Desires and needs floating in an ocean of unreality
Turbulent now …. awaiting the calm ahead
…. will calm come? ……….
Or …. Will the spattering raindrops always turn to storm?
The winds of change will blow ……
Creating emotions of gentleness like a summer breeze
Or ….. tempestuous like a raging whirlwind
But today … let the peace and stillness of the summer
Catch a breath and hold my life in limbo ….
Until the carousel ride begins again………
