Path Taken


                                                                                                           Cento 



Drive slowly                                                                             (1)
Into a daybreak that's wondrously clear                                  (2)

With the windows unrolled                                                      (3)
Confusion, like the heart, gets left behind                                (4)

Whispered the heart
With who, how and what

If I must worry about how
I would be without dreams now                                               (5)

For what are space and time but the inventions                      (6)
And…
How much - how little - is within our power                            (7)

Looking into the heart of light, the silence                               (8)
You breathe; new shapes appear                                             (9)

In this short Life that only lasts an hour                                  (10)
I took the one less traveled by                                                 (11)

Reminded by a child who a drew a circle sky
Because the sky has no edges                                                  (12)
So do I
