The Price Is Always Right


djBeaulieu


 


I have the right to choose – don’t you?


I can do what I wish, but I have to pay!


 There is always a consequence to entertain!


May be, we, you and me, should have refrained!


The price comes with throwing of the dice


and when we win it is twice as nice.


 


Ah, but what occurs when we,


 you and me, Loose!!!???


Ah, the price, then, is not so nice.


The consequence is a lot more overpriced!


I love to choose, don’t you?


It’s like a game to see if I’ll gain a little fame.


 


It is all up to you - you know!


The reward or the penalty


is always the correct return


yes, the price is always right!


God presents no minefield of hoops.


The choice is always ours – you know,


for


God never goes – “oppps”!

Great poem Donald, and very true.
My poem, "Life's Lessons", has a similar theme. Will you take a moment to read it and tell me what you think?

Thank you for sharing, and continued success!

Awesome poem, but I think you knew that.

YEPPERS! God never says OOPS! He does it, and it's always Final. Man's the screwup; it's MAN who mucks up everything God has done. Sad! But I am better than most because I have God in my life; He's the one who has sustained me from day one!

(((HUGS))) and much love, your friend, Karen Lynn. :D

Great write yet again, Don! :)
