The Good, The Better And The Ugly Senryu

Three Senrus in one read, what a bargain.

 

To rise above hate

Is cheating the Grim Reaper

Of stealing your soul.

 

The fork in the road

Has more than just two choices

When faith is your guide.

 

The highway to hell

Isn’t a bad trip if you

Can handle the heat.

Awesome! Good, better and ugly indeed!

[The Rock And Roll Cowboy(REBEL WITH A CAUSE)]

Why thank you.

[PP]

My pleasure :)

I guess we all have to put one foot on the hot coals and be as kind as we can to others whilst we hold hope and faith that life can be kind x

[The Rock And Roll Cowboy(REBEL WITH A CAUSE)]

I an not argue with that insightful thought.

Dude, I love the way you write. You always make them so interesting, I loved each senryu's.

[The Rock And Roll Cowboy(REBEL WITH A CAUSE)]

Thank you so mud sweetie.

It's clever of you to make those pieces, huh! I was motivated to write these couplets here:

The first one- the good.
"Love over hate, do it
Let the Grim Reaper quit"

The second- the better
"Good if you have a choice, better if you have more.
But it is up to your faith if you will get a score"

The third- the ugly
"Yes, it's easy to be there
Just go wrong and err!"

Hope I didn't fail to give my reaction through those little crafts. And thanks for those brilliant pieces of yours. Very smart!

[The Rock And Roll Cowboy(REBEL WITH A CAUSE)]

Wow thank you for those awesome replies. LOVE IT!!

[Rachelle]

It all eventually ends up with the choices we make and the consequences thereafter. And so, with free will should come an inner light that only wisdom can provide.

[The Rock And Roll Cowboy(REBEL WITH A CAUSE)]

Very well said, thank you for sharing your insight.

[jacob erin-cilberto]

i like all of these...but especially the last one...and the first one...stealing the Grim Reaper's pleasure.

[The Rock And Roll Cowboy(REBEL WITH A CAUSE)]

Well thank you sir… glad to see you enjoyed them.

[Aethereal]

All three of your poems are well done, but the first one inspire me to write this tiny gift poem for you to keep as your own:

Now

Rising over hate,
flying over lust and greed,
dating love at eight,
makes the fires of Hell recede.

Don’t procrastinate;
allow love to intercede.
The hour’s getting late;
now’s the time to sow love’s seed.

[The Rock And Roll Cowboy(REBEL WITH A CAUSE)]

Wow that is terrific, thank you but I think you should share it with the world.

[Marie]

Good, all of them. I especially like the first one.

I rather think the highway to hell is a lot of fun. It's what happens after you get there...

[The Rock And Roll Cowboy(REBEL WITH A CAUSE)]

Yes I agree with that last statement. Thank you so much for sharing your thoughts.
