A Metaphor of Life
by Carla Guenthner
Hillside Middle School
Grade 8
A valley is full of trails
In which every step you take
The trail behind you vanishes,
And every time you turn onto a new trail
The trail that you were once on &vanishes.
Some of these trails will lead
&&.to your doom,
While other trails
Will guide you elsewhere.
Some of these trails
Will be rough, full of rocks and holes
While other trails will be smooth and easy.
Some of these trails
Will be full of terror and grief,
While others will be full of beautiful sights and dreams.
If you are able to walk these trails
Until the end,
There you may finally&.rest
