A Path<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I walk my usual path
I know this path
The path knows me<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I am comfortable<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I find new things<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I am comfortable<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I walk the path
With ease<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I am comfortable<\/p>\n\n\n\n

A breeze comes in
Turns my head
Winter is cold and biting
I look up and out
Hmmmmmm<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Take a few steps
I look up and out<\/p>\n\n\n\n

More steps I take
I look up and out<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I stop<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I am comfortable<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I know my path
Yet…
I look up and out<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Do it!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I walk up
I look around
I take a few steps
Three gems I find<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In a few steps
A tad uncomfortable
Yet
A new path
I sigh
Grinning<\/p>\n\n\n\n
