you choose the path and march without a turn
that's all it takes to show how you are made
to go without a second's brief concern
others might have a lot to teach or learn
aware of what is coming down the grade
you choose the path and march without a turn
we watch the water swiftly steam and churn
then take our place in the open arcade
to go without a second's brief concern
far off in the fast-growing beds of fern
small animals will know to be afraid
you choose the path and march without a turn
a purpose set to work and so to earn
not gold or silver but the ends of trade
to go without a second's brief concern
no simple fire yet in each heart must burn
a flame that guides us on the last parade
you choose the path and march without a turn
to go without a second's brief concern
Odd ravings, comments, and other wastes of time. Some are in plain prose, yet others are in rhyme.
