Guidance
Following a new hiking
trail encourages adventure
the surprise of a curved
path opening to glorious
vista, or a concealed hideaway.
Our eyes eagerly seek
for signs whether overlarge
billboards, tiny arrows at
foot level, or worn beaten trails
of previous travelers.
Fresh steps
on proven ground.
Yet then I
hesitate when
guidance
is spoken behind
us,
words giving step by step
directions offering
a different scenic walk.
New fresh ground. Unmarked.
Keep seeing my safe route before me
wonder where the change will go.
Suddenly the path becomes a
challenge to walk holy ground.
