This road is long and twisting

A path that is dark at times

Curving into the  distant unknown

Covered in thorn ridden vines


The sun disappears and falls behind

The only light shines from within

There is really no way at all

To see ahead, just where I have been


Rocky stones beneath my feet

Each step more uneven than the next

One misstep and I  will fall

It makes it so hard to judge what is best


A deep rumble overhead

As the darkening clouds roll in

A cold clinging trickle hits my face

As the stinging rain begins


The stones become slippery and the trickle turns to deluge

The shadows of rain make it hard to see

Ahead the sun then peeks through

Once again lighting the way for me


The path is bathed, a beacon so golden

Lit like a neon sign in the night

Paved in brightness, truth, and warmth

Hope endures in this promising light
