My Roads Not Taken (c)
arlene s bice
Choices to make, choices to make
Everything sold, leaving New Jersey
Where to go, where to go
Offers from Colorado, mountains call to me
Invitation to Kentucky, book shop to run
Friends in New York State & Maine
A Georgia peach said c’mon down
New Hampshire, Live Free or Die
Seeking, seeking, seeking
The voice came through, finally
The cards spoke clearly
The direction waiting for me
Lake, forest, rolling fields
North Carolina it would be
A visit was love at first sight!
Lots of life lived in 11 years
Now a home in Virginia,
I go where I’m sent
Happily with no regrets
Of the Roads not Taken.
Lovely memoir poem!
