Premium MemberOn the Path Less Traveled by Accident

Did we meet when stars aligned?
Or when fate dragged our paths,
to coincide, to bump together, 
sidled up, side by side, 
by coincidence, in time and space?

Or did we slide into the same path by accident?
Enchanted to dance by chance, 
with happenstance and serendipity,
on a path less traveled?

We met in a deserted park,
in a deserted ghost

Premium MemberThe Road Less Traveled

The other day I had a "first", two flat tires.
Could it have been worse?
I was on a narrow country road  and
driving very, very slow.
Suddenly my car made a loud pop
and then it fell. The right side dropped.
I drove a bit further with a little hesitation
and fortunately reached my planned destination.
I got out of the

The Road Less Traveled

"The Road Less Traveled"

Not all roads diverge in a wood,
Some lead to places misunderstood.
They wind and twist, never straight,
Leading us to a different fate.

While others take the path well-known,
The beaten track that's often shown,
Some of us crave a different view,
And choose the road that's less pursued.

It's not for fame or glory we stray,
But to find

The Road Less Traveled

The Road Less Traveled

Know yourself and what you believe is right,
Then follow your path with all your might.
Sometimes you'll be alone on the road,
At others with others, yes quite a load.
Don't let the crowd define your way,
But your sense of right be your sway.
Some say to take the road less traveled,
Yet at times, for some,

Premium MemberRoad Less Traveled

My plans for a road that's less traveled
are looking a little unraveled;
inflation is roaring
and fuel costs are soaring...
Yikes, six hundred bucks for the gravel!

Road Less Traveled

Road Less Traveled

Tongue-tied relentless brain
Take a step back, realize your game
Overcome the noise - quiet the rain
Release grips on rising blame

Quick reactions stumble and fall
Emotionally bruised and raw
Crowded, pushed up to the wall
Shy, outspoken words of flaw

Personal boundaries cut from clay
Silent crowds still to tame
Reactive moments every day
Shifting focus away from shame

Speak from the temple

Premium MemberRoad Less Traveled

I know that life's a journey  
This road is lined with many holes
But there's still an urge inside me 
To leave the open road
To leave the first footprint 
On a path that isn't there
To face my fears of falling 
To replace them with loving cheers
I want to see the world 
With my pair of

Premium MemberThe Road Less Traveled By Two Old People

Two old people took a road less traveled
Recently they did so
Age can confuse, disorient
Sometimes bad things happen though

The road ended choices presented
Should they go around the block
Back to the road traveled familiar
Or onto a road maybe see livestock

We chose the latter way to go
Time to us seemed to move slow
But then we realized, we were

Premium MemberA Road Less Traveled By Us

After our not so delicious meal, we started home
He turned onto our usual well-worn road
Headed west where we bumped across raised railroad tracks
There at the octagon shaped stop sign turned northwest

Feeling sated and situated on the road home
Home where the old weak heart resides
Home where comfy cotton clothes are worn
Home where feet are adorned with

The Road Less Traveled By

Take the road less traveled by
The one of mud and filth
For nothing ugly ever lies
Alone, it counts its kills 

Take the road less traveled by 
The one of guilt and shame
This one might lead to misery 
And you’re the one to blame

Take the road less traveled by 
The one of blood and pain
The path leads

Forgiveness, The Road Less Traveled
By: Miracle man 
2/28/2020

In each life, painful things are bound to occur,
and fires of revenge, from our thoughts, oft emerge.
Our lives aren't always found as we would prefer,
and absence of forgiveness becomes our scourge.

God's will is we forgive those doing us wrong,
showing mercy without placing condition.
Failing to forgive, misery we prolong,

The Path Less Traveled - Variation of a Frost Poem

Two loves had I, a careless youth 
And sorry I could not love them both.
One I loved more, which is the truth.
The fair one, beautiful yet uncouth.
The other dared not swear her troth.

I chose the younger, as just as fair,
And as such perhaps I was to blame
For a mystery she would not share.
Though as for

The Road Less Traveled

The road less traveled...
helps us to embrace uncertainty,
teaches us to trust in tenacity...
makes us to reflect on reality,
and shows us the beauty of rarity.
The road less traveled...
causes us to crave creativity,
brings us to the hill of humility,
takes us to the peak of positivity,
and shows us the depth of diversity.
The road less traveled...
Brings out the best

Premium MemberUphill Roads Less Traveled

We have all heard about diverse roads
and rivers,
currents and currencies,
investments and co-investments less traveled,
worn,
tried.

The law and order rules of the road
and downstream river most rowed
are politically and economically empowered
of, by, and for punishing disorder,
dissonance,
uncivilized behaviors,
sociopathic paranoia and madness.

Yet the Golden Rules of upstream ecological sacred grace
speak of divine gift economies 
and power of mutual cooperativity
