Sonnet --- 2024 December 19
Don't Walk blinks RED screaming; Staying Alive,
Life Ark two by two -- save/spend and start/end,
Better Safe Then Sorry -- Don't Drink and Drive,
Catch phrase that forewarn--protect and defend.
Seas calmness...falsely trains expert yachtsmen,
Stop and look both ways ere crossing the street,
Phrase tell us Why's/Wherefores at time tighten,
Calm ere the storm, wind turns, reverse at peak.
Lost/found, bad/good, hell/heaven, Satan/Christ,
End of the line -- Ground leastwise best, Sinners,
Broad spreads throughway to wickedness-Curses,
Throughfares the ways to righteousness-Winners,
Walk the tightrope-smart naught e'er run the talk,
Forethought count and define most tightrope walk.
