Path For Poetry

Walk forward
And the path appears
Faith
Is required in every stage
As I step onto the path
Not knowing what the result will be

At present I'm writing poetry
Where Free Verse dominates
Even as I have tried some structured forms
Introduced in Avis Harley's ABC books

But now I am reading
Poetry handbooks by Mary Oliver
And I am captured by
"Rules for the Dance"
The desire to write singable poetry
Runs deep through me

A new path to walk toward
Not knowing the twists
Or the hazards
That lie before me
