Analysis of Well travelled

joanna scott 1967 (Birmingham)



The road before me
I walk each day
I send out loving thoughts
as to God I prey

I never feel alone
as the darkness trails
I see my strengths
never my fails

The beauty calls me forward
it tells me it's mine
then I wonder aimlessly
I know it will be fine

The end of the tunnel
the light shines bright
Keep every one safe please God
until the darkness stays bright
