The Fork In The Road

When you come to a fork in the open road
You have to decide then and there
Whether it’s to the left you should go
Or to the right you should bear.

The road to the left looks wide and free
With nary a sign of a bend
The one to the right is winding and rough
But Utopia may be at its end.

Take the one that seems the best
To fulfill your most urgent desires
Decide that you’ll take the road most direct
Or the one curiosity inspires.

Whichever road you finally choose
You’ll often ponder that choice
But don’ look back, take life as it is
Accept what you have and rejoice.
