Shalt Not

Run into open arms Inviting secret charms Race behind darkened doors Harlots, rapists, worldly whores Digress Speak tones of love Beautiful looking doves Heavens gold is free and pure Tempt me not just to be sure Fly Wise to listen but even glisten As a drop of water listen On angels wings now glide Free from earthly pride Thou shalt not hide!

Perfect title to draw me in and find out what goes on here. A whole gamut of situations and emotions to make this a poem to read more than once. Luv, Lizzie

Good advice based on truth..Enjoyed reading this eve...Thanks for stopping by my work..Yes, I see the parallel between Frost and my Haiku..It could be that my sub-conscience was using my reading of Frost's work many times ...I wonder sometimes when I write, where what goes onto the paper comes from..Sara
