Compass

The needle quavers,

and haltingly points

northward.

Magnetic North

not

True North.

We all need to follow,

take a path,

begin a journey.

There are different “truths”

with degrees of difference.

Choosing one

the other

can have

magnified results

miles into our journey.

Destinations lost,

journeys wasted,

hope not realised.

What needle do you follow?

What pointer guides you?

Is it an

approximation

or truth?

Will it lead to

promised hope

or disillusion?

Fulfillment

or emptiness?

Joy or

despair?

Your journey,

is it directed

by a cross shaped

compass?
