If Only I'D Walked This Way Before Poem by Brian Stafford
If Only I'D Walked This Way Before
If only I'd walked this way before,
Instead of walking past the door,
What things would I have found,
Would I be walking on new ground,
What things would I have seen.
Places where others haven't been,
Would my eyes have been opened,
And my head have been motioned,
A mind in tranquil liberation,
And wallowing in clear deliberation,
A collection of words catch the eye,
As transparent thoughts go floating by,
A fresh accumulation of new ideas,
A collage of perfection that appears,
If only I'd walked this way before,
And chanced upon another door.

The older I get the more doors I open Surprise, surprise.
A mind in tranquil liberation...loved it sir. Thanks for sharing the beautiful verses.
What if? I wonder how many have asked themselves that question? A lovely poem, great rhythm and rhyme, a truly entertaining read.
my favorite lines: A collection of words catch the eye, As transparent thoughts go floating by, thanks for sharing, and thanks for the inspiration. bri :) Another Door Brian Stafford dreams of what might have been, if only a different door he'd found and entered in. In MY life I truly stumbled, (some people might say) , but i'm quite well satisfied..... as I near the end of my day. Fate! ?
Brian this is a terrific poem. I think everyone wonders sometimes what the outcome could have been if only we had taken a different. Well done to you an excellent poem and a very enjoyable read
