Treading on

The dark landscape, ahead loom
warning me of the impending doom
I pause, unsure, fearing the fall
and tread lightly, in steps small.

The moon, behind rainclouds hid
casting shadows onto the mid
of the black expanse that lay before
like the sea in some alien shore

my feet on a search  for firm ground
my ears strain for the slightest sound
my eyes try to pierce through the dark
while I, on this journey, embark

I move on, oblivious to the time
through paths filled with dust and grime
till red shot through the sky's mien
like blood from a severed vein

and soon the sun rose, spilling its charm
on a new day, serene and calm
and  I behold the beauty ahead
that was hidden by the night dead

the stream, like silver, winding along
sprawling green meadows, wide and long
green trees and flowers in full bloom
raise my mind from fear and gloom

I tread on, my face in smiles
journeying through sunlit miles
drinking in the beauties blend
happy, till my journey's end
