[Poem - With Recitation] - The Traveler

---

You trek upon an unknown way,
A path less traveled, whereupon,
No signposts mark, nor footprints stay,
To show the road you travel on.

Your every step within that land,
Takes you not toward journey's end,
Nor to some final place to stand,
For 'round each turn's another bend.

Down one way glad tidings show,
A happy way, where feet feel light,
No problems challenge as you go,
And close at hand, nearby delight.

Yet another way’s adversity,
Struggles making hard the going,
Costs paid by naught but bravery,
And the tenacity you’re showing.

So pushing past the troubles, near,
And taking in horizons, wide,
You dare the Fates and without fear,
Look far beyond the mere wayside.
