Two roads lie just before me,
I am at the fork today,
One a downward path to darkness,
One an upward shining way.
Perhaps I have scarcely noticed
The distinction between the two.
At the start they seem so level
I may be deceived, it’s true .
So, I say to myself each morning
When preparing for the day,
“I am now as I am always,
At the fork of life’s great way”.
