Warning signs
Mark my path
On all sides:
Do not enter.
Bridge out.
Dead end.
Catastrophe surely waits.
Too many hindrances,
Much easier to detour,
Make a U-turn
And avoid the hassle.
Easy never solves anything,
And I've no desire
To tread on old pathways again.
Obstacles be damned.
I choose to move forward.
This road may end
With no marked exit
For the next leg of my journey.
I may be forced
To blaze my own trail
Through life’s rough terrain.
I will move forward.
Some signs are just meant to be ignored.

I say blaze your own trail..so often I don't like where the trail leads so I must seek another one.
You took both messages from the sign: No Through Road, and Rough Road, and worked them into your theme seamlessly.
I love your attitude! Forge on, and knock those obstacles out of your way!!
Ride on! Somne signs really are, and I love your take on this no through road changed to a rough road - it will get less bumpy as time goes on.
Blaze that trail, and make the signs say what you need for your journey! Great poem for that photo. Love how you wrote it, really has a great feel.
I love that second stanza! So true!
true! signs, signs, everywhere's a sign.
Wonderfully positive! Love it when we blaze our own trails.
The only way out is through, baby!
yes.remarkably optimistic.kudos and amen.
As Roy and Dale would sing, Happy trails to you until we meet again...
Well done. I loved reading it. And yes sometimes ignore signs.
"Some signs are just meant to be ignored." Ha! Well at least you're not travelling the same roads again.

Oh yes, blazing your own trail. The call of the wild that is so much a part of the North American instinct. Gotta love it.

Poignant things for me right now.
Thank you for sharing this. It hit me in a good place.
I say amen to blazing your own trail AND ignoring some signs. You're right, some ARE meant to be ignored.
Cheers to your sentiment above this comment box,Mary, inspiring, too! Smiles!
This is passionate. Makes me wonder if she isn't the one who defiled that darn sign. :)
I've seen those warning signs many a time in my personal life.
