The Road

from a life of wandering
 an internal clock tick-tock whispers the old road is calling 
its winter deserts of stars and loneliness the cold north coast
 valleys of rivers and wildflowers mountain peaks that line the heavens but i will not go 
a new road calls and whispers this way into seasons of forgetting where i am and where i’ve been 
from a life of wandering

Reflection:

Constant change is both burden and reward.

Writing Prompt:

What are the burdens and the rewards of your life?
