2ND POEM IN ONE NIGHT

MY WELL OF WORDS HAD RUN DRY.... FOR MONTHS I HAVE WRITTEN NOTHING, THEN IN ONE NIGHT 2 POEMS...( IF I MAY CALL THEM POEMS) CAME FORTH)..I GUESS THAT THE WAY THINGS ARE....FEAST FOR FAMINE....
HERE IS THE SECOND ONE.... I RARELY USE SYMBOLISM...BUT

LIFE!

IT IS DANGEROUS
TO GO WALKING IN THE DARK
RUNNING, OR STROLLING THROUGH THE PARK
DEFENSELESS
AT THE MERCY OF THOSE
LURKING IN THE SHADOWS
HIDING BEHIND ALMOST ANYTHING
TO MASK THEIR FORM
DISGUISE THEIR BEING
TO MAKE YOU FEEL SAFE
STAY ON THE PATH
BRING YOUR INNER LIGHT
DONT TRUST STRANGERS
WITH PROMISES
TALL TALES
CALLS FOR HELP
THE NIGHT AIR NEEDS
ILLUMINATION AND CAUTION
DISTRACTION COMES EASILY
KEEP FOCUSED
PROCEED GINGERLY
WISELY
UNTIL YOU REACH YOUR DESTINATION
WHERE THE LIGHT
WILL BE SHINING BRIGHTLY
