To where we should
Life at crossroad....

In crossroad of life
I hanker professional cricket,
Menace out- stumped!...

If it takes years 
To make a split second choice
It takes a split second 
To make eternity....

Battered memories 
meet radical acceptance;
They hit a crossroad;
I wanted what I wanted; 
A proper catastrophe....

Robert Frost was at a crossroad
as his traditonal style showed
Master of the colloquial voice
rhymn so often his first choice...

there she stood
vulnerably shy
consumed with doubt
her future in the balance

A wrong turn in the 
Four pathway city crossroad 
Made a propitious 
Encounter for two strangers
Longing for the magic day

At the crossroad
I was knocked down
by a speeding horse
and galloped flowing his mane.
Oh, harbinger of hope,
please tell them,
I am permanently disabled
desparately waiting for their help....

Lost,

At a crossroad of my life,

Destiny I met

Smiling, she inquired where I was
 
Heading to 

“I am waiting for you to tell me.”

Was my reply!

Caught at
a crossroad
duality
reigns
Closing 
you off
or opening
lanes
That choice
staring back
in the distance
provides
A new 
destination 
or a place
— you can hide

(Dreamsleep: March, 2025)

when in Eden
please follow
the signs

don't step on
the grass
don't eat any
apples

as you're
leaving
Eden

at the crossroad
right for life
left for knowledge
save yourself

go straight and
take both 
with you...

Life is a choice
Amidst crossroad
Wise path you go.

Life is freedom
To obtain peace
There should be war.

Life is giving
Sharing is love
Give what you have.

Life's not old age
It's 'bout good times
It's 'bout chances....

And the journey comes to a stop.

Wires dangle in the air
Like unanswered questions -
Darkness looms,
Solemn silence rolls by -
Is it the end of the road - yet,
The sky on the horizon still burns.

She is there for the show
but somewhere else all the more
in this world of sudden haste
she can not find a place that’s safe

Standing at this lonely crossroad
she's waiting for a source
that’s about all that’s left
for this girl feeling stressed....

I approach your throne my Maker
Confused and anxious about my fate
Should I take this leap of faith
Should I turn left or right
You say its not by power nor by might
but by your spirit
I am stuck at a crossroad
And I bow at the cross
Lord show me which way to go...

At the crossroad,time ago
A galloping horse knocked down me hard
My world askew.
Today I walk with halting stride
On the rough road where trouble hide
With crutch in hand  going slowly.
Yet swaying and flowing another horse
is seen galloping towards me.

“sipping Jack while singing Charlie”


the season left leaving leaves
left and right right 
on the all

around ground except where
a windswept wind kept 
the streets clean

at the crossroad cross meant
for meetings to be met
by Paganini and 

me 
and
Him...

You take away me from the light
into the dusk of faceless streets.
We see faint traces of the bright,
road lamps are all of a sudden lit.

You fell in company with me
so as to come up to the point.
We bypass dirty roadside sleet
and soon walk out of the crossroad....

We are here at the crossroad 
In our steps the road was behind was long
But in our memories it is short 
Limitless time 
Still confines our days together
So today we come face to face
With a dreaded goodbye 
Well skirted 
Adiós amigo	
Adiós my friend	
Adiós! ! !...

Oh, the blessings that awaits
 
when we learn to spiritually evolve, 

the Lord waits at the crossroad to help us catch up 

and together walk in the light.

it was the roses 

that kept him going

crimson petals

and cinnamon scent


the wreath 

full of thorns

with ink blood

tattooed to his crown


a garland of nettles

propelled his feet

as he took the lonely walk

away from the crossroad

Flower of my youth
Take advice
I won’t cry for you
die for you
I won’t wait for you
lie for you

Flame of my sea
Pay heed
I must set sail
at the crossroad
I have to give
two eggs & calico

Flesh of my desire
Give leave
When I go
one of these days
I am not
coming back...

When someone is dealing with one’s feelings where’s the love? When someone is at a point of feeling out of sync where’s the love? When someone is torn apart emotionally and physically where’s the love? At a crossroad from many different directions where’s the love within thy innerself....

Godless, I faced a crossroad decision,
I knew that I would have to choose.
Facing a situation I did not envision,
God showed me what I stood to lose.
The cancer that had my body bound,
Appeared to me as a death sentence,
And yet God chose to make me sound,
The price I paid was my repentance....

Down the dusty road of life
past each crossroad of pain and sorrow.
We struggle through each day and night
trusting God for each tomorrow.

With an aching heart full of memories
we think of our family and home.
Remembering love, good times and laughter
knowing fault lies within us alone....
