Choose the road you love–
Choose the road you love
A Poem by Coyote Poetry
Life is simple. Find something you enjoy. Then do it.
to Buddhism comes when all passion, hatred and
delusion die out and the soul is released from the
necessity of further purification.)
Thank you lord of life and death.
Thank you for the fresh water to drink.
Thank your for the clean air to breath.
Thank you for the green Earth that supplies shelter and food.
Allow me to protect and give respect to Nature.
Give me wisdom and common sense to do what is right.
Coyote
I sit at the crossroad of a life.
I looked back and thank the Lord of life and death
for my life.
I tell the young people around me.
“The Nirvana of a blessed man is to loved a woman.
Held many children.
Celebrated life and having many friends.”
“A wise man don’t blaspheme the people who held
joy and love over all things.
They will be the missed souls.”
I light a candle.
Remembering missed family and friends.
I thank them in prayer for their gifts of love
and friendship.
Regrets will be many in a life.
Forsaken dreams and lost battles.
Only remedy is to get up.
Gather your hopes and dreams.
Choose the road you love.
Kindred spirits dance in my sweet dreams.
Sweet fragments of faces of kind woman.
Exquisite ladies who gave me gifts of long
embraces and sweet kisses.
Dances by the midnight moon.
Create a paradise for a man to revive when
he is old and had too much time.
The memories of long legs, blue eyes and
flowing red hair over my body.
Still can bring a smile today.
Blunders in a life and love can leave you disappointed.
Only cure is to celebrate each new day.
Love, Dance and Laugh.
Choose the road you love.

John you are a very good poet. I love the way you turn negativity into positivity. I like to do that too; in both my poetry and my life. I like to enthuse people that I meet with positivity. Because life is precious and too short. Compassion rules in my life. I give it out and when it is treat with disrespect I walk way. Disrespect brings negativity into peoples lives. Everybody should show respect, globally. As the great Bob says, “One Love, One peace, One World”
Only remedy is to get up.

I love that verse. It is so true. And your last line sums it up. Choose the path you love. Be happy in life. And make people smile without expecting anything in return apart from respect….

Yes, I was thinking deeply and I know what your up to . Ok have lots of question too and I studied it right now and finally the dark clouds that’s been hanging in my brain for so long that caused me sleepless nights is clear now. I know there are disputes that really needs to be settled. I hope I’m not involved into this upheaval. lol
