Roads
a lifetime of roads traveled-- endlessly seeking an unnamed goal, bypassing treasures along the way . . . dreams and memories meld, become indistinguishable in the flow of a mind's eyes-- looping endlessly together, mocking distance and time-- all paths are now one . . . broad dirt roads between welcoming maples in a stolen home-- mountains and meadows too quaint and delightful to be left alone . . . sipping wine in an icy driveway under the warm sun of an African winter, contemplating finales with a pained smile . . . but a bright Sunday on a southern highway offers time for reckoning-- a promise to finally name the goal-- a destination for all the roads of my life |
