The Path Of Life Poem by Christopher Tye

The Path Of Life

Rating: 5.0


The Path Of Life

Preordained perhaps,
Self-determined maybe,
Fate playing it's part,
Luck running your way,
Following God's path,
Following your own path,
Following your families path,
Following where others have trod the path,
How much is our free will,
How much are we led,
How much is self-determined,
How much do we compromise our path,
Walking wearily on the path,
Blistered and battered on the path,
Tired and lost on the path,
Life is hard if the path is righteous,
Struggling to see your way on the path,
Crossroads and junctions to cast you off the right path,
Friends and family lost along the path,
Now the path is at it's end and the journey complete.
