Image: Walking alone at Night (here)
Street lights only at strategic places
Just enough to side-step the gain
To pin hopes for a safe passage
Not to take unnecessary risks
Seize the privilege of an upper hand
Spare oneself of unwarranted grief
Secure a release in any event
One need not have to wonder
Just split easy to get unstuck
Stars above will help to ensure
Avoid the gutter mind the dark

There is a sense of danger in this about walking at night. One needs to be alert to the surrounding. I actually enjoy taking an evening walk especially under the moon and stars. - True
ReplyDeleteYeah, walking in the dark can be dangerous. Especially in winter when most of the people are indoors.
ReplyDeleteBe Careful. Stay Safe.
ReplyDeleteThanks for dropping by my blog Hank
Happy Holidays
Much💌love
"Spare oneself of unwarranted grief,".. yes! Such wise words, Hank!
ReplyDeleteAvoid the gutter mind the dark - well said.
ReplyDeleteFrom first to last, the uncertainty of a safe passage haunts and cautions. Life, in fact!
ReplyDeleteI find a loving sense of warning in these pieces Hank. Excellent writing my friend. You have a great holiday season and I will see you next year. Be safe 🙂✌🏼🕊
ReplyDeleteThere is SO MUCH Zen philosophy in your poem, it's running over (which means great.) Hank I have enjoyed you and your poetry for years, never want that to end. Wishing you a joyous Holiday.
ReplyDeleteSafe journey towards the light Hank. Happy Holidays and Happy New Year!
ReplyDeleteThe darkness so often feels unsafe... and sometimes darkness hides the danger.
