A Road Often Traveled
Oh what a road traveled, one that I see everyday,
Oh what a mysterious road, that seems to lead to a calming abyss,
Oh what a dark road, which seems to never end and the end which is ever more hidden by the dark road,
The never ending road, which I see as my way home and too many a cramped place,
Oh what a jam packed road! Traveled by many and many for me to see!
A road for me to observe and see those who wish to travel the road often traveled,
You have seen it! you have heard it! you have taken it!
The magnificently splendid road, you have been a part of,
The sometimes quiet road, which you have slept and you have enjoyed,
A road often traveled by many, yet a road that is forbidden to walk on and fully explore,
I enjoy the underground avenue which brings me to the best places like Grand Central Station,
Grand Central Station! Filled with many lives and so many personalities it is impossible to fully explore,
But it leads back to a similar yet different numbered or lettered road,
I enjoy this underground pathway for it brings me to East 23d Street,
East 23d Street! A small stop yet filled with so many like minded peers that I have to stop and stare,
And most importantly,
It leads back to more roads for me to travel and explore!
The railroad- some may call it- leads to me to one of the most important places, 86th street,
86th Street! the path to further explore and a journey step to the ultimate place, home,
And the great part of 86th street,
it leads to more roads!
The road keeps a steady path and never wanders,
The road offers experience not taught by many,
The road offers a sense of strength and adventure,
The road offers me amusement and hopefulness,
The road sometimes not cared for and abused, and hated for the dirtiness,
Is a place of connection and a place of human interaction,
To me it is a place of wonder and a place to see the most exquisite people!
But some people the everlasting a road, is just,
