Sometimes I forget
we follow a path
and must share the road.
We do it our way
but it’s not the way
and we’re not alone
So listen we must
to the call respond
and serve the have-to
We so want to stay
to stop the journey
and linger awhile
The path ahead is
unclear and obscured
and it twists and turns
Oh why can’t it be
the straight and narrow
no rights and no lefts
Despite aching hearts
we have to answer
and take the next step
Use our eyes to see
and our ears to hear
be better than right
Sadly we move on
happy to have met
those who share the road
Thankful for support
and resting assured
in shared hearts and prayers
So we continue
together apart
different paths same road
Let’s enjoy the walk
this is not good-bye
It is hello…
