Everybody picks a road to travel on through time…
And detours seem to lurk at every turn…
Mistakes are made and lessons taught,
for all of humankind…
That’s the only way we seem to learn…


But some of us aren’t satisfied with our share of the pain…
Trouble seems to be our only cure…
When things go right, we turn and run,
it seems a bit insane…
that hurt’s the only thing of which we’re sure…


We’ve all done, to some degree, the things I’m writing of…
None of us are pure as driven snow…
In matters of the heart and those that all point back to love…
Here’s something to be learned,
that you should know…


Don’t go chasin’ demons down the dark side of the street!
Life is way too short to borrow trouble…
But, if you do, don’t be surprised when on some night you meet
a demon waiting there…
To burst your bubble!!





Follow your dreams...
Follow your heart...
Let them be your guides...

Have you ever known the color grey when the nighttime finds you weak
I have, I've walked that road each time; that's where my angel sleeps

I wrote this for myself, but I know a lot of other folks might be able to use it, too. It is easy to borrow trouble, but hard to break that habit!! Thank you, my good friend!!

I appreciate your reply to this one, but where are you going?  I hate goodbyes!!

Morning Sunny,

Isn't it true, that when things seem to be going the best, the demon jumps right into the middle and things change.
