Paul,
I like how the last word of each verse becomes the first word of the next. The last verse comes full circle. Great format and message! Love and Hugs.

Paul, this is excellent! Lyrical and delivers the message...
"
Foresaken roads in journeys' end
can lead to wasted seasons.
In our minds we ne're pretend
each goal has its' reason."

Fantastic write.
Though we sometimes don't see a reason behind some action or happening, it is there. We do better in accepting it.

This is a wonderful poetic commentary on the rhyme, reason and patterns of life which no man/woman seems to manage to escape. Our logic is confounded by the passage of time and, thankfully, our wantonness also is quite often erased by the onward march of life. The treadmill continues, whether we are on it, off it, or defying it! What seems so important today is made a passing phase, and so many little things remain the stuff of what really counts and makes a difference - like love, hope and faith!! Great message wrapped in a poetic helix that is like the DNA of life itself - ongoing! Thank you, Paul. Kate xx
