Well thought, Milt, I found myself on a one way street once, I thought it was gonna go on forever... turned out to be a roundabout (hmmm, do you have them in the States?) Terry

We have a few of them...some in the middle of small towns, but not many in the U.S. overall. Frankly, I like them, but I didn't have a roundabout in mind when writing this poem. Thanks for your comment.

Good one! If one is broad minded, willing to try out many new things, he will surely succeed. I agree with you completely. Well penned. Good advice

Milton, you've written a thought-provoking monoku, and it has two possible findings: success can be obtained by going down a single path, while double-pronged strategies may lead to failure. Correct me if I'm wrong. Best regards

Having only one approach limits one severely. Taking several approaches generally broadens one's chances of success.
