         MANY ROADS 

There are many roads 
to travel. 
Which one do you take? 
One with fewer turns 
Well-worn path
No climbs or 
mistakes. 

Stay small
Keep quiet 
Hide your light
Doesn't seem that bad. 
Yet—
A feeling was rising
A nudge at your feet 
This road boring
your thoughts on repeat. 

Curiosity grew
Courage too
Ruckus maker—
You might 
Turn around  
Change direction 
Permission you give
yourself—
Make the climb
You have what you
need inside

Stop the cycle 
A choice to make
Great things
are yet to come 
Adventure of life 
is yours to hum.

Tell me what road will you choose today?
