The Path

​The Path
 
A path goes wrinkling up the hill;
     A little path, with many a falter,
As if a faint or fickle will
     Had let the purpose alter.
 
The fault we lay to him alone
     Who first the upward journey made;
Whom here a bush and there a stone
     From his intent betrayed.
 
How many will their footsteps bring
     Where waits for them a trodden hollow,
For men, like sheep unquestioning,
     Are ever fain to follow.
 
If you are first, put back the stone,
     Subdue the bush your way impeding.
Diverge not, though in toil you groan, -
     Remember - you are leading.
 
by Ruby Archer
