Best Choices Poems

A series of choices is what shapes a 
life.
Some lead to joy, others to strife.
They come in all sizes, both big and 
small.
Some lift us up and some make us 
fall.
Our choices affect us, but so often 
others
Strangers and friends, family and 
lovers.
Take care that...

Something evil this way comes
Sure as the rising of the Son

A single heart left to bleed
A lost soul with a dying need

When love proves it doesn’t care
In creeps darkness and despair

Angry voices from deep with-in
Scream I’m a fool once again

I now make my soul like...

Three score and five and I am still alive
It's been a rocky road from there to here
For years my only goal was to survive
When each tomorrow was a new frontier

Of friends and foes that came into my sphere
The beauties and the beasts, my counterparts
Some saw...

A silence all pervading, nothing moves,
the gentle hiss I hear is in my head
like record stylus placed into the groove.
Clouds form the upper circle overhead.
Orchestra tunes up in the nearby trees,
Blackbird and brace of Magpies, two for joy,
blue safety curtain draws back by degrees
a scarlet...

~Choices~ 
( Rhyme)


 It seems like we all go through 

 Struggles, sorrows and great strife 

 But take a moment and look around you 

 There are many good things in your life 


 God give us blessings and much more 

 But we...

an angel or devil
which one will it be
the emotions run rampant
and twisted in me

try as i may to reach
out in the night
whilst darkness and demons
they answer my plight

i long for the daylight
to awaken my slumber
with songs sun by nature
to quiet nights thunder

the blue skies and...

On that day, 
When life took its first breath,
Was destiny formed?
Was life responsible, 
For its own choices?
Or numbered by the days,
On which life lived
Did age grow,
With her own conscience?
When lifestyle and choices,
Came into play,
When roads and pathways
Were ventured,
Mistakes and consequences,
Inevitable,
Do mistakes happen
When life takes hold...

Harvard, Princeton or Yale?
   I'll take some courses by mail
Engineering or Mathematics?
   I'm majoring in Acrobatics

Piano, Violin, Flute or Clarinet?
   I'll play my music on the Internet
Chaucer, Shakespeare, Milton or Dickens?
   Give me a J.K. Rowling tale...

      I did not choose my life, I was born into it;
The lonely little girl was my path to follow.
            Did I wish to bury a baby and a...

People are different
But everyone wants to be happy
     Many have been known to say
        “I found someone now life will be good”
           And proceed...

when in death upon its course I take
My the loved ones left behind will face my deaths heartbreak.
To an early grave I've been laid to rest 
In a suicide I myself predicted with precision 
Of my very own...

FATE IS SEALED

This road I've walked before 
I should know it so very well
Because it opened up a door
One that lead straight to hell

 I met a rider upon a dark steed
He asked me what's my pleasure
Then wondering if there's a deed
Or if perhaps any...

I never thought that one day I might be
so separate and distanced from the sea,
and grey-blue mornings offering a cloak
of cushioning velvet, where once I woke
so long ago, to watch the gannets dive
as silvered arrows from a tight-strung bow.

Those days were ever tinged with disbelief
that...

Butterfly wing door vestibule builds anticipation  
Shuffled, carpet muffled greetings, familiar embraces                     
Piloted by Holy Spirit, seated hushed congregation 
Ritual of ornate cathedral thanks...

LIFESTYLE BALANCE

Apples, oranges and banana's to,
Strawberries are so delicious,
And are very good for you.
Lettuce, tomatoes, cucumber and some celery,
Make tasty salad dishes for you and me.
Potatoes, carrotts, mushrooms and peas,
A very healthy casserole,
I'll have some, "Yes, please!"
Vitamins are good for your bones, hair and skin,
It...
