How Far I Have Come…

How far I have come
I do not know 
every small step 
felt just like that 
a step and nothing else. 

There are miles ahead 
I do not know 
what other pathways lie
forked and straight 
every path I shall try 

When I chance upon it
I do not know 
whether it is fate 
to reach the summit high
or shall I let time pass by? 

The golden sunrise seen
I don’t know 
if I shall ever glimpse it 
but if I do I’ll rest there 
smiling at the journey’s end.

A reflective poem for Sunday.
I don’t have anything much to add, except that you probably know, I like to reminsce. Where I was, where I am and where I am going.

All I will say is everyone’s journey is different. We all have our paths, our choices and we all deserve to ascend our personal summits.

This poem was brought about by my reflection on my own poetic journey. Back then I wrote on Instagram in 2018. (I am active again…for now). Here is a sample of a poem from that time.
