You can’t base your life on other people’s expectations.

Every wilderness journey
Another footprint unknown
Tomorrow always uncertain
Turning over each heavy stone
Lost among daylight’s darkness
With every tentative step
Smallest ember of light’s beacon
Finding vacant cabin’s doorstep
Door’s rusted hinges swing free
Waiting, barely hanging on
Vivid memories gather now
Warmly colored with worn crayons
Bushel of thoughts now arrive
Rekindled glow from fireplace
Yesterday no longer frozen
Gentleness cradles weathered face
Surrounded in breathless peace
Slumber’s cherished whisper calls
Weariness at last overcomes
Cuddled under nightly dream’s shawl

Thunderstorm cuts in
Night plunges into drama—
Rescued at sunrise

Dancing all alone
Searching for tranquil partner—
Sunset’s peace steps in

Scaling mountaintop
Unveiling fresh perspective—
Creator reveals
