There are moments
Electric currents
That you know
Will never come again
Life changing moments
When decisions are made
Decisions of import
Demanding response
In that fraction
Of a second
That will determine
The course
Of the rest
Of your life
I have had
That crossroads moment
When every thing
Pointed me
To familiar, safe paths
But another
Overgrown with mystery
Somehow appealed to me
Harder to clear my way
Through the brambles
Across marshes
Where my hopes sunk
With every step
Streams out of their banks
Seemed impossible
To ford
But I found shallows
Where pools
Were still
Often I looked back
Questioning my choice
But there was no turning
Pride stoked the adventure
The bleed of ego
Gave me no alternative
But to continue
And now
I am here
Most days
That brings contentment
Others I wonder
Where the other road
Led
