Mostly
Tip toeing
On the rail of life
To
And
Fro
This way a while
Now that
Wishing the future and I
Could have a little chat
Maybe then
Choices
Would not become
Mistakes
Tip toeing
Would become
Sure footedness
In the light of what’s best
Glimpses
Into the future
Are seldom allowed
And only briefly visible
To the truly
Self-aware
Wishful thinking
Here I go
Sometimes boldly rushing
On the rail
Going, going, going
Where my choices take me
To
And
Fro
On the rail of life
Tip toeing
Mostly
