Paused (poem)

As the sun began to sink low in the sky

I looked back along the trail and…

Paused….

Marvelling at how far I had come.

In the distance I could see

The difficult days when I faltered

The marshlands where I got bogged down

And the ocean that reset my soul

With a deep sigh, I prepared to go on

I looked ahead along the trail and…

Paused…

The sun’s light was blinding me

Concealing the distance left to travel.
