How does the path change while I’m away?
it touches the other end of thought
all those who walk on it leave a trail
I wonder if the path has a soul
it touches the other end of thought
ignited limbs as the mind sprints
I wonder if the path has a soul
Has it changed me in part or whole?
ignited limbs as the mind sprints
a leaf falls on the ground; a flower blossoms
Has it changed me in part or whole?
The path is dynamic, capturing all details
a leaf falls on the ground; a flower blossoms
How does the path change while I’m away?
The path is dynamic, capturing all details
all those who walk on it leave a trail

Brain development demands that we frequently try new paths. But most of us stick to a familiar one on our morning or evening walks.
