Temptation

Be circumspect in
Wading into temptation
Steer clear of that danger zone
For the devil is
Always waiting to trap you
Wade not into temptation

Edward, I must admit that I was tempted to read your Monoku because of its title 'Temptation' and I'm glad I gave in.. this is a deep write full of wisdom and truth. Beautifully expressed poetry!

Hi Susan, thanks for appreciating my poem, 'Temptation'! Just so you know, I've turned it from a monoku into a Sedoka:-) Have a blessed day!*Hugs*
