Labyrinthine, Languish, Letter - words Poetry Contest
 Sponsored by: Constance La France 

 

There’s no hiding place beneath moon or sun Christ see's it all as the planet is spun. Quote - Poet’s own
Life’s a labyrinthine of twisting roads Roads that direct us to our final home At times we find ourselves stuck at crossroads Despair not for there’s many roads to roam. One day we’ll arrive where we aim to be Could be paradise or a cell in hell Eternal happiness or misery How well one has travelled life, who can tell. The roads not taken could be for the best It's the narrow roads that lead one to grace Pick wrong labyrinthine and fail God's test And not meet the King of Kings face to face. To the left or to the right it’s your choice Have faith in your heart and follow the light In the distance sweet angels will rejoice And a room’s prepared with heaven’s foresight.

What a beautiful philosophical discussion, Belle. There's a lot to learn from your poem: It's your call, go left or right. Excellent advice to trust oneself and go in the direction of the light.

Yes, we do have a choice. But in reality, we don't. Our only choice leads to heavenly bliss. Blessings.

A splendid dialogue on life, Belle. Much to gleam from your poem: To the left or to the right it’s your choice Have faith in your heart and follow the light--well said!

First of all a quote of perfection, to me. Oh yes Belle, they say a maze we get lost in, a labyrinth we find ourselves! Smashing work! ...like you Brits say :D
