the roads converge into one a single path that declines
becoming more and more narrow with each step
even as sounds coalesce into a single note
tiny, tinny, barely audible until the path
and the sound and even the light unite
providing hardly still a goal to seek
or a meaningful point to pursue,
’til all at once nothing remains
but a miniscule speck of light
far in the distance and all
you really have to do
is reach out
and just
touch
it
Nice structure.

Most welcome, George.
Very tempted to call you Paddy. Would you be offended?

Paddy? Sounds a bit … Irish. But we’re all Celtic brethren, so why not. 😉

Your image and title reminds me of a book I grew up with, The three Paddy’s. I’m sure you know it. An Englishman, a Scotsman and an Irishman, etc.

Well done, Sir George! I love it 🙂
Also, I enjoyed the word ‘point’ in the middle of the poem – very suggestive!
