"The fruit of Temptation" Looking from a distance, hesitant to act upon, an instant reaction. You know you should, but you do not know, how this story unfolds. You seek wisdom and answers, from the magic man. No telling says the crystalball. So the fruit of temptation, blows in the breeze. It's within your grasp, will you have a taste? You give in, there was no choice. I always knew temptation would win, as you take a bite. One leads to two, then to three. What an incredible fruit, you have picked from the tree. -John W. Hedglin- www.johnspoetry.com I'm new to this place and what a place it is. I am glad to have been given a link to it. |

Hi John, A nice opener for a first post. I agree temptation is quite a powerful agent. Had a look at your website too, and notice your a Black Sabbath fan: a man of taste  Cheers Jon |

John, I like this one . . . a poem with a lesson in it. Very well done and a nice entrance into our little circle of friends. Welcome to Passions!! Lone Wolf Poetry should surprise by fine excess...it should strike the reader as a wording of his own highest thoughts and appear almost a remembrance. -J.Keats |
