The Road About Life
“The Road About Life” c Copyright 2015 Bill Friday
Nothing new
Just the usual mental misery
A fog brought on by working
like I imagine most people work
Long hours
Possibly a second job
or a third
Mine is on the road
driving
Not strenuous
just monotonous
After the first year
every road looked the same
And every conversation about life
Likewise
What the one monotony taught me about the other
The road
about life
Is that they both have an end
One expected
The other not so much
And that you should not forget that about both
Because the one seems to end too late
and the other
far too soon
But really
they both arrive right on time
Plan your trip accordingly

I really like this one Bill. We do need to plan accordingly… and we need to live as much as we can. Not be so afraid of change that we miss opportunities. Nice prose. 🙂

Thank you, Dani. Like I said on Facebook, I wrote this one a couple of weeks ago, but the tragedy of the day made me choose to post it when I did. It’s very timely for me now.
