Onward

I slow my stride,

seeing the paths end.

My friends and love-ones have,

trailed behind.

I simply must see what lies ahead.

Stopping for a moment I ponder.

how long it will take them to catch up?

Then navigate onward.

The brevity you write with spills across the page as if it were an abundance of words. I can almost hear the rise and fall of your voice in its reading. Well crafted, Cherrie!

What a wonderful review. I love when a poem becomes tangible. Transforming from words to an connection.
Thank you Kelly 😊
