The Shady Path Poem by Diana Rosser

The Shady Path

Rating: 4.5


If your reckless mind unobserved
wanders into the deep dark sea,
then swim towards the lapping shore
and walk towards the tall oak tree
at the start of the ancient wood.

It's there you will find the shady path
you walked that English summer's day
when the sun shone through high above
and sprinkled stars along the way
lighting the ground beneath your feet.

Remember, you were not alone,
walking beside you was the one
who showed that the shady path
was an adventure that begun
at the start of the ancient wood.

Beautiful imagery. I feel there's an element of adventure and mystery here. We can walk any path if only we believe in ourselves.

Mind wanders in deep dark sea and this also wonders not finding right way sometimes. English summer day amazes mind. Finding a shady path is interesting. This is clear imagery that talks about helping self. Going in adventure with memory of God we can achieve our goal. Amazing sharing...10
