The Road
pave me
crack me
that’s fine with me
I’ll still take
you anywhere
front and center
don’t be distracted
even when lost
just follow my lead
your legs are
worn and long
but persistent
there will be pain
uphill slow battles
and dead ends
but remember all the
animated borders
along the way
wild child flowers
pops of color
swaying independent
keeping us company
I promise you we'll
have sprinkled friends
especially in Ireland
so, my love
take my hand
with the souls
of your feet
and let's go see
together we shall
undust miles
of mysteries
you won't be alone
I'll be with you
I'm The Road
I'm invested too
I'm living
through you
crack me
that’s fine with me
I’ll still take
you anywhere
front and center
don’t be distracted
even when lost
just follow my lead
your legs are
worn and long
but persistent
there will be pain
uphill slow battles
and dead ends
but remember all the
animated borders
along the way
wild child flowers
pops of color
swaying independent
keeping us company
I promise you we'll
have sprinkled friends
especially in Ireland
so, my love
take my hand
with the souls
of your feet
and let's go see
together we shall
undust miles
of mysteries
you won't be alone
I'll be with you
I'm The Road
I'm invested too
I'm living
through you
Author's Note
I'm thinking about moving around and paths we follow.
I've met a lot of interesting people in my lifetime.
Life can be an adventure.
I'm excited about an upcoming trip also.

Hey there!
Trips are good for the soul amigo!
Getting out of our environments or bubbles can
feel liberating:)

So true. I have a retreat in Colorado way above the Mile High City. Plan to recluse in a few weeks. Thanks for the reminder. Hugs and love, Oral

Hey:)
OMG! that is so spot on.
Yesterday morning I got up and went to work.
I had no idea I'd end the day singing
Karaoke with my older son at his work. LOL
He works at a karaoke bar. Just never know!

We love a good four day road trip, two days out and two days back. Lots of times we flip for direction or visit places from the food network. Tight one lady

That sounds so fun because I love food. haha
I love that show - Dives, Diners and Drive-Ins!
I was a food network junkie a while back and loved watching Rachel Ray 30 min meals before she became mainstream.

The only friends that are constant are the roads we travel in life… everything else changes…. Amazing poem

Re: Re. The Road
Friends do come and go when we are on
our path that takes us to different places.
Growing outside of our bubble helps you meet
different people and perspectives.
But I'm also fortunate to still keep
in touch with my best friend from 6th grade!
she just texted as I was making this comment. LOL

Hi Fai:)
Thanks! I wanted to put some sort of destination
in this write and Ireland was it.
Plus, Mark has a slight Irish accent that slips out
occasionally when he talks. haha

Hi Cipher!
Pops of color are mandatory. hahaha
Right?
If not, then I might as well close my eyes.

Dear A,
I thoroughly enjoyed the joy and supportive motif in this write. It leant itself to that feeling of being loved and secure within a relationship. Lovely write. H🌷

Hi H
Having support and love when you are on a quest of
self-discovery is important. It just feels good.
Thanks for getting it!

Hey Cisco!
I've always thought Ireland is super cool.
All the lush greenery everywhere looks so stunning
online. Seeing it in person must be awesome!

Dumb ol RL limits... wtf. Grrrrr
So, about your next piggyback ride...
I love how you accentuated certain details within the write. Even my (broken)accent?
Awesome lines portraying the journey of your thoughts! Little visuals that paint a picture of fantastical futures...
You ain't the road, baby. You're the goal.
Great stuff, you beautiful poetic boat partner!

hello honey:)
Don't sweat the RLs!
Hahahah - boat partner I am! So excited for that.
You know me - I'm a visual writer. I love all my details and
scenes. Almost like little movie vignettes. And you're my
road, boat, airplane, roadtrip! hahaha
All in one fantastical man!
I love that you used that word in your comment
MWA big sexy!!

Hey LJ
I'm so happy you stopped by chica!
I'm glad you got the vibe of this.
I've met so many interesting people in love
and in life. Everyone is following their own paths
and figuring this thing called life out.
So happy to have met you on the road!
Thanks for the RL and stopping by!

Traveling (or moving) can be quite the adventure, especially when it comes to settling roots in a new place. Hope everything goes according to plan.
Amazing write.

Hi Wally!
Thank you for that. I believe the adventure is the road. Wherever it points you. A partnership in a way. I've met people in my life that came in just the right time. Who knows if I would have met them if going in a different direction. Whether it's at a new job or a writing site:)
thanks for your all of your support and the RL amigo!
