A Message From the Dean the road Since the beginning there has been the road. Those who set me on it told of signs to point the path. And warn of hidden hazards; and at the end, they said I ' d find a golden city wherein contentment lay - and peace. Theirs not the fault if I have missed a turning; Theirs not to choose once I was on my way. No time had I for thoughts of journey ' s ending For there were wines to taste and songs to sing. And in my blood pulsed youth - and immortality. Ahead of me the highway ploughed straight furrow That climbed a hill and cut a gap through trees That reached tall fingers toward the sky. My feet were eager for the path and moved so fast I hardly knew The scent of honeysuckle in the hedges or marked the hawk That braced dark omens on the blue. I swiftly climbed to reach the crested summit, For something deep within me said, Beyond the brow lies Camelot! But when I reached the top - no shining city but just another hill. And on beyond another, and another, each new crown climbing higher still. And I could see the road no longer ran unbending But forked to right or left, and I must choose Which turn to take; and on the signs that stood like stern schoolmasters Not always were the legends clear. Sometimes they pointed two directions; Some sang of cities fairer still. And there were often byways, green, untraveled, To lure me from the path to unmarked trails Where banks of blossoms bloomed in bright profusion. Or grasses rustled in a fairy glen. Sometimes they led me into swampland Or into thickets where the thorns tore tender flesh. Yet not a one but had its leaf of laurel And none that brimmed my eyes with vain regret. Sometimes the fairest road dead -ended And 1 must choose to go or left or right, and now I find myself atop another hill, and in the distance Still another left to climb. This daunts me not. It is the road that is important - That, and that choice has been, and will be, mine. - Howard RawUnson 7
