On A Learning Journey

Strong.
Is the emphasis to learn.
On a journey introducing,
Numerous twists and turns.
With no ending to the ups and downs.
That seem to be awaiting,
Around every blinding corner.

Yet,
For whatever the reason...
The unknown becomes more exciting.
Never to bore,
Anyone anticipating this trip to be smooth.
As thought from the beginning.
When one's comfort zone to leave,
Seemed a routine from 9 to 5.
Until twilight arrived.
With a setting Sun closing down,
Upon a yellow, red and purple horizon.

This journey begins to speed quickly.
As if each day rushes to leave noon behind.
And all that blooms to eventually wither.
Like a remembered youth to age.
Closing in on that final stage.
To think and wonder about...
What's ahead.
After that destination has been reached!
