Of Paths

We all need paths in life,
      To take us here or there.

And when there's not a path
      We forge one new with care.

Most of the time we follow
      The work that others have done.

But sometimes a new path
      Is what we need to run.

We must make sure our path
      Is safe for our littles to follow.

For often we find that
      In our steps they go.

May my path today be one
      I'd love to be followed on.

Grant me the grace, Father,
      Through your own Dear Son!
