Life's Paths

-by Lori Parker

The paths we take

On life's curving road

Can become

An awesome load

Though try we may

Try we might

Go on to

Lead a fearless fight

The bends ahead

Throw us askew

We must fight

To start anew

Take lessons from

Those curves and bends

Take strength that

Those lessons lend

Each day may bring

A different curve

Take care

Do not swerve

At the end of every day

Sit and think

Lessons learned

Today
