Paths of Promise
Find your own way, but please do not follow
There is so much hope in the morrow
For your will can twist the path
Avoid the dark and possible wrath
Down this road lies mystery
In all that you may never see
Yet footprints wash away you know
With every fresh layer of snow
Lost is all the truth found before
When cold dwells and grizzlies snore
Shadows cannot pierce this light
That is found in layers of white
But tire tracks they smear their mark
Curves upon the road so dark
Putting life into the smooth concrete
The rules with which man tried to compete
Which never disappear from this earth
Yet we try to deny them from birth
That which makes the sun shine gold
That which has been around since times of old
It holds that the cat shall proudly walk
And that some birds may try to talk
These things we as humans shall never master
Even if our cars can go faster
Nothing is as brilliant as a proud steed
Or the power held in a single seed
So walk in footsteps made earlier today
Or the road so that you cannot stray
But know that nothing stays just so
Not on a day of pure white snow
