Salted Path

Life is a path

And as I continue down this road

I see grains

But what is it?

At that beginning of the path, there were once flowers

There used to be towering trees shading the trail

Potatoes and carrots growing from the ground

Fruits ripe above me

But the longer I walk on this path

I don't see any of that anymore

Where did it go?

Where did the shade that protected me from the sun go?

Where did the clouds hovering about me go?

Where did the rain go?

Where did the snow go?

All I see is the path ahead of me

The bright sun

And the plain blue sky

But is the sky really blue?
