Best On Writing And Wordstree Poems
I’ll take the back road; it is lovely and less traveled;
the briers run high against naked tree bark.
Around the bend the road is graveled-
with a canopy of foliage making pathway dark.
The briers run high against naked tree bark;
keeping all wild predators - hidden dangers at bay.
With a canopy of foliage making pathway dark;
I continually hope I am not mistaken for prey.
Keeping all wild predators - hidden dangers at bay;
if an abiding effort is on daily bases.
I continually hope I am not mistaken for prey,
as long as I do not travel in all the wrong places.
If an abiding effort is on daily bases;
around the bend the road is graveled.
As long as I do not travel in all the wrong places;
I’ll take the back road; it is lovely and less traveled.

The light from my window shines..
Brings my eyes and dreams all outside..
Birds flying so high from tree to tree..
My only prayers are to write that free..
The light from my window drifts past..
My mind follows the wind from line one to last..
The tree tops dance to the music of me..
Each word a whisper that screams what I see..
The light from my window is my inspiration..
A place to imagine and play is my dedication..
The page is full and a title is found..
All my visions and images expressed with no sound..
