Tiptoeing down the endless boardwalk
being careful not to trod on open spaces
is exhausting work.
The dirt road may be dusty and gritty
But there is a freedom
in being able to jump and run without fearing cracks in the road.
There is beauty in having both.
One foot on the boardwalk, one on the road
Seeing the path, but not knowing the end.
Perhaps it is a dance, a balance of both
And those who chose one or the other are fortunate
To be so sure in the needs of their feet.
