A poem written for Express It In Eight about traveling without a destination
The Journey

That familiar quote
about the journey,
not destination,
‘tis true ... Long, winding
oft rainy and dark,
a solo venture.

Fain one’s inner light
illumines the path.

Free verse
For Express It in Eight, 05.16.24
Prompt: Image of a solitary individual who is facing away while holding an umbrella and standing on a narrowly lit, gently curved walkway that leads far into the distance.
