Two roads diverge

For some

life is like a stroll

down a country lane,

pausing here and there

to smell the flowers

or hear a bird singing.

For others

life is like a walk

down a city road

battling crowds of people

jostled and pushed,

ears deafened by noise.

Sadly the road you take

is decided for you

at birth.
