I thought I took the road less taken.
But I guess I was mistaken.
When the two paths diverged in the woods; I pondered at which path I must take.
I took the path to my left in the woods; Was it the right path to take?

Red Rover, Red Rover, send Missy on over.
I hear the cries on the playground of my childhood, but many years ago my childhood was over.
Red Rover, Red Rover send age to make me older.
I feel with age that wisdom makes me sober.

Oh great pyramid that seems to be reaching straight up into the sky.
The ancient Egyptians long ago constructed and built you upon high.
The mysteries of those who composed you still astounds me.
A pyramid is a wonderful relic of the past, many of us do agree.

the eagle soars in the sky

They say every dog has its day.
I think clichés are that way.
A good cliché is like a blast from the past.
A half-baked idea can be a blast.

The lazy days of Summer are like a big bear hug.
The sun comes out and the warmth is like a drug.
The sun rains down upon us like speckled gold dust from above.
The lazy days of Summertime brings all of us great joy and love.

There is a purpose that God and nature gave us every season.
Fall, winter, spring, and summer always happens for this reason.

Winter arrives the temperature drops and can make some of us blue.

I reached for you without any hesitation and I must reminisce.
You tempted me with your promise of sweet unadulterated bliss.
This temptation sometimes can not be controlled, almost everyone can relate.
This temptation I write of can strike most of us from nine to ninety, so do not hate.

Tell me why there are blue birds in the sky?
Please tell me why my little sister had to die?
Why can’t some of us find true love’s embrace?
Can you tell me why some people live in disgrace?

A well crafted cliché can express exactly how we feel.
Just like a good salesman knows the art of the deal.
Another cliché advises us that an apple a day can keep the doctor away.
Did you know even William Shakespeare wrote using an occasional cliché.

They say art often imitates life.
Why do we feel so much strife?
I really don't know the true meaning of life.
A well crafted word can cut just like a knife.

A well crafted word can help and be a great writers dream.

This year marked the anniversary of your death.
When you first died I couldn't take a breath.
I can't believe you've been gone so long.
It's sad you died at twenty-nine, you were wronged.

I once awoke in a fury, and my mind was in a hurry.
All life is bleak and bleary.
The body is weak and the soul can be weary.
For all of mankind is in chaos theory.
