Quiet Poetry Lounge : A Major Intersection

[sweet apple*pie]

Dear Friend,

Please look both ways before you cross me,

Because lifes a…

Unkind place

And soon you will find

That your lips will speak words your….

Soul….. cant cash

And the Lord don’t like bounced checks.

So check this….

Never say, what you’ll never do

Because this life thing has a funny way of…

Toying with you.

Oh but this is not child’s play,

This life is real

Really real.

So please

Look both ways before you cross me

Dear Friend

If most would only take heed to words such as these, much strife could be avoided. I really like the way one thought just expanded into another, for example in these lines:

And soon you will find

That your lips will speak words your….

Soul….. cant cash

And the Lord don’t like bounced checks.

So check this….

Perfect title for this piece too. Welcome back.

*take notes
On crossing a busy intersection, never tread on the yellow (caution) light! ...it's like playing 'Roughen Roulette' ..so always make it a habit to cross on the green...Dear Friend.
Elexcellent piece poet!
