Go with the Way

Kiki Stamatiou

Go with the way
by going with the grain
and not going against it.
Follow your heart,
not your desires.
This is the only way
to stay on course with destiny
like the birds fly south for the winter
and return in the spring
when the weather is warmer.
Look to the sun for warmth,
but don't let it burn you.
