My Road

My Road In the beginning my road was bumpy Filled with deep holes and large rocks My shoes were also quite lumpy And I didn't wear any socks Traveling on my road was a trial For I was just beginning you see Moving the rocks , filling the holes every mile Was really quite hard for me I had friends that traveled with me I learned much from them along the way Even so we didn't always agree But we were a colorful Bouquet As the years went by my friends became few Not so many on my road with me For I learned teachings that were knew I wondered about friends but spirit said,"let it be" More years went by, I was just one My path now smooth and serene Much easier now than when I'd begun It was all a different scene I took off my shoes for they were mighty worn And walked with bare feet on my road It was like I was newly born I was no longer a toad My road was smooth, all obstacles gone I could see the end up ahead Yes there was a brightly lit dawn And I continued to tread Now I am there at the end of my road And happy as happy can be About to enter my new abode A ship that's not of the sea.
