The 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"
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
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,

Road 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

Road 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

The 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

A 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
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,
placing

The Road Less Traveled
Journey into the world of wonder
Where reality is there to uncover
Learned to crawl, walk, and run
The ride started right before it began
The passage looked like a straight line
To a youthful soul everything was fine
A few bumps emerged here and there
None of which is such a big scare
Midway, conditions suddenly changed
Rains poured while thunders raged
Choices were

A Road Less Traveled
A road less traveled is only a journey the cowards fear
For the brave stand strong through the hard times when danger grows near
Fighting a battle that seems most certain one will lose…
However the weak submit.... limiting their potential and not knowing their destiny
While the strong create the opportunity to where they have to choose

The Road Less Traveled No More
The road less traveled, an ideal place.
If the road less traveled be.
But so many others have found this road,
It's no longer less traveled you see.
If you want to do something really profound.
If you'd like to heed the call.
The place where you'll find true satisfaction,
Won't have a road at all.
