Love does not walk
Hand in hand 
On a one way street.
She had already
Turned the corner
There was someone else to meet.

a sluggard tissue shall die

Countless ways
In route to wrong
Still more 
On road toward sin
One way
Ahead of lost
Trail track
To  
Christ within.

Bedfellows

Differing from our enemy,
in one way the same

Our conflict in common
—to praise or to blame

Read another way, sarcasm

What color is your paradigm?

Long Dark Drive

A long lonely drive,
On a deep dark road,
That ends up nowhere,
D.O.A. on a road called dead,
A one way trip,
To a point of no return...

One Way Or Another

Actions speak louder than words
A saying I thought was absurd
Till Mom showed the way
If I don’t obey
The paddle tells things went unheard
Form: Limerick

Poems

Poems can be so soft and sweet,

So bitter and hard,

Poems are total opoistitts,

But. . .  

They are all the same one way or another.

You come to the Lord
  in only one way

On wings of forgiveness

Premium Member Love Without Hope

The peasant to the princess bows
 His lowly heart with love is filled
 But love is not a one way street
 In his dreams alone love's tango thrills

this is there day
let them

Human, we are

In time 
we are all travellers 
in one way or another
either born losers,
or born winners;
however, not that easy to claim 
we are not sinners

Love

love is a candle
burning brightly 
in the midnight sky
the rain dims 
the everglowing blaze
but the light keeps moving
one way or another
now and forever.
