Divergent Paths.
For Linda-Marie's "Journey Back In Time.' Style: Nonet
In youth the road less traveled called me;
fame and money held no allure.
There were mountains to conquer,
youthful legs and ideals
needing exercise.
The plan was tough
and I not
up to
task.
Spring, a time of many emotions
distractions were rampant, and bright.
But careers are forever.
The hormones were flowing;
desire calling me.
Making money
critical
at that
time.
And so I chose to take normal paths;
settle for the low hanging fruit,
and labor was just labor
without love or purpose;
without fulfillment,
without a dream
worth chasing;
to live
for.
