Blog Avenue...!

The Avenues of life can lead you
to very strange places


Some of us stay on the highways
never follow the byways


Oh what they miss


The small side road that led me to 
blog land was
unmarked, unfamiliar
and totally unknown


but with a whispered direction
from a friend
 take it, I did,


 and what enormous pleasure
 I have received
from this little side trip
down a strange avenue

Last night I took another avenue
one I had passed daily
mapped on my blog
but never more than glanced at


I thought I knew it so well after all 
on yours I had traveled it frequently
to end up in delicious places


Last night I traveled my own
I pressed

on my own blog


It was like a new world
Did I really write about that!
what was I thinking!
Is that really my untidy hall!
Obviously I was feeling down that night!
Oh pretty pictures, forgot I had those!


Sometimes it was like reading
 something someone else had written


But...


The beauty of it all was to read the comments
in context with the post and altogether


There are some incredibly beautiful people
out there and they visit me


I will be, forever,  grateful
that I took that first turn
off my well traveled road 
and went down the Blog Avenue


Go visit yourself
if you haven't already
the second journey
will often show you what you missed
the first time round 
in your hurry 
to finish the trip 
and start on another
