This Way

Maybe our path

is already paved with gold

and we don't see it

but for the cold, gray

grindstone before us.

Trudging through the muckity muck,

our headstrong self

doesn’t really know it all

after all.

Lift up your eyes

to higher ground,

grab your boots and

get out of the Way.

Do not call to mind the former things, or ponder things of the past. For, I am about to do something new. See, I have already begun! Do you not see it? I will make a pathway through the wilderness. I will create rivers in the dry wasteland.  Isaiah 43:18-19
