Verses from the Road
In realms unknown where horizons meet,
A journey unfolds beneath eager feet.
The open road, an endless song,
Invites the heart to wander along.
Through valleys deep and mountains high,
Where azure skies embrace the sky,
The traveler roams with spirits free,
A dance of wanderlust, a jubilee.
Beneath the canvas of stars so bright,
Guided by the pale moonlight,
Footprints trace stories on foreign lands,
Whispers of winds in shifting sands.
In ancient cities with tales untold,
Where history’s pages gently unfold,
The echoes of footsteps resonate,
A timeless cadence, a traveler’s fate.
Bridges built on rivers wide,
Connecting souls on the other side,
Cobbled streets with secrets held,
A labyrinth of stories, yet to be unveiled.
Through forests dense, a symphony of green,
Nature’s masterpiece, a sight serene,
Each rustling leaf, a fleeting note,
A melody in which travelers float.
The ocean’s waves, a rhythmic tide,
A lullaby for those who bide,
Upon the shores of distant shores,
A timeless dance, forevermore.
In quaint cafes and bustling squares,
Conversations hum like sweet affairs,
Languages blend in harmonious rhyme,
A universal dialect of space and time.
As the compass spins, the map unfolds,
The traveler’s tale in chapters bold,
For every journey, a story to be told,
In the tapestry of life, a thread of gold.
So, let the roads beckon, the paths entwine,
A symphony of places, yours and mine,
In the tapestry of life, each step’s a rhyme,
A poetic journey, an endless climb.
