Choice is the bane of Virtue's existance;
Choice can lead the good man astray,
But sooner or later that man must pay;
If he should choose to dance the Devil's dance.
Virtue in Love, Love in Virtue,
Choice always comes between these two;
So many choices, like so many gems,
Each possibility glitters and gleams.
Though in choosing one I could shatter dreams,
Uncertainty's door Choice always opens.
Yet the final choice, as ever, falls unto you,
Cast off doubt and do what your heart would have you do.
A very nice piece of work.Thanks for sharing it with us; and, keep on writing that we may learn from you as well. Edward Kofi Louis.

Dear Alexander thank you for your initial invite. So I decided to read Virtue. Nice.... I will take this opportunity to say 'I.m New ' at this and upon my first thought of Virtue it was not best. I felt it off beat with the rhythm. This is all very well and good but, since I have not as yet read any other of your poems my judgement is quick with little undrstanding of your style. All that is said to say I read it again & again... I love the last line. Niiicee, Thank you for the invite and I will in time read others.
