More Than One Choice – Day Eight

What to do today?

Should I while the day away?

Should I buckle down and type away?

Should I choose instead to clean all day?

Or may-hap travel ’round the town instead?

 

One way leads to relaxation galore,

Another to hair-pulling and plots I adore.

Yet the third will bring peace and zen still more.

The last brings adventures that will ne’er bore.

Which path shall I take?

 

Each will bring with it rewards,

Whether I weed amongst flowers

Or mentally cross a ford.

Yet again there is the satisfaction brought

With whatever I decide.

 

They say that two roads will diverge in a wood,

But that is not quite right.

There are more than just two paths

Before my sight.

And maybe the choices will all cross in the end.

I chose to try and write a different version and yet still tip my hat to Robert Frost’s The Road Not Taken.
