To keep on going

“Wherever the path may end,
We can make a new way
And begin once again
Every single new day.

So I choose to keep on going,
Even if I’m the first one walking
Barefoot on a deserted land
Without a helping hand.

In nature, I have found
More lessons than I can count –
There’s much to admire
When one isn’t near a wire.

The world is an open window
And I am a hunched willow,
Branches reaching the water
Excited only for what matters.

The air, the earth, allow me to breathe
Slowly, and I am glad I am now at ease
With the strings of hope and peace
That thankfully still live inside me.”
