Second Chances

Posted on April 21, 2013 by Joanne Edith

We’d been lost for years,

Searching for a sign that things might change.

At each juncture,

We chose our path together

Trusting that our charge into the new century,

Would alter

The trajectory of our lives.

**************************************************************************

This was written in response to Trifextra Challenge: This weekend we’re asking for exactly 33 of your own words plus the following three words:

charge
century
lost

So 33 of yours plus 3 of ours means that everyone will have a 36 word response this time around.

I like the hope in this, in the idea that the new century could bring something new.
