Emily's Poem #5 - "The Roads We Walk"

The roads we walk are made of tarmac

Smooth, straight forward and easy to navigate

These take us far and wide

With no end in sight

The roads we walk are made of gravel

Crumbling, dispersible and easy to destroy

These take us far

With no end in sight

The roads we walk are made of dirt

Uneven, dirty and hidden out of sight

These take us away

With no end in sight

We all have our own roads

Each with it's own material

Life span, and destination

But they do not define us

Do not forget:

We can pave our own roads

It just requires some imagination

And a lot of elbow grease
