This is a beautiful poem. It was not written by me. I am posting it as a blog because Earmarked For Trouble asked me to!

______________________________________________________________________
Life is a journey through many terrains
from Gardens of pleasure to deserts of rain
from an ocean of love to a jungle of hate,
from mountains of glory to canyons of fate.

There's a highway of joy & a highway of sorrow
A road for today & a road for tomorrow
So chose your path wisely & walk it with care
If you follow your heart, you'll find your way there.

Ive been to the garden & planted seeds there
Ive been to the desert & felt the despair,
Ive swum in the ocean & drunk of its wine
Ive ran through the jungle & hung from the vine .

I climbed up the mountain to touch the sky
I went to the canyon & started to cry
Ive travelled both highways both today & tomorrow
Ive basked in the joy & wallowed in sorrow.

My path has been chosen & Ive walked it with care
Ive followed my heart & Im on my way there
So Ill just keep walking till I find what Im after
To mountains & oceans & gardens of laughter...
