Nevermore!

Fear, fear, go away
Live life to the fullest every day!

Why the deer in the headlights look?
Am anything but a crook!

So strike up the band
God is in command!

Hello Joshua, you gave me a laugh; you're right - to bad the horses fell off the cliff - thanks for stopping by and the comment re my "Brethren of the Wind" poem. I like your stuff, to the point, rhymes and short. thanks Jim Gibbons

Indeed, with God at the helm we have no need to fear, Joshua. Enjoyed the "deer in the headlights" analogy. You might consider entering this super poem in Thvia's "analogies" contest. Love, Carolyn

Interesting work..I enjoyed readin this one..I have never seen a deer in the headlights but am always hoping that they will stop and not come into the road or turn and run back into the woods ..I would hate to hit one.I was delighted that you stopped by and read my work..Sara
