long road ahead


every day I walk
every day I see the same old things
stop signs
city buses 
tall trees
but I never really take much time
to look at the smallest examples of joy
a flower peeking up at the sky
a kid playing with chalk on the sidewalk
the birth of new leaves
I should see all this and rejoice
but I don't 
instead I move on my way
plodding and complaining
about the long road ahead
