See the Horizon
#WritcoPoemPrompt71
Enjoy the simple luxury of life's soothing or complicated roads,
Rarely comes crafted, stylish or handy...


##WritcoPoemChallenge
Enjoy the simple luxury of life's winding,
Or rocky paths,

Rarely smooth,
Straight or easy...

But always offer a gift,
A test or a prize,

That makes us blossom,
Stretch and shine.

Sometimes we may wander,
Stumble or falter on the way,

Wondering,
If we'll ever see the horizon...

But then we meet a star,
A compass or a lantern,

That gives us faith,
Guidance and vision.

And when we finally reach,
We may glance back and grin,

At all the snapshots,
The laughter and the tears...

And realize that the journey,
Was the treasure of it all,

The one that sculpted us,
Nourished us and made us who we are.
