Takes more than strength to survive. It takes luck, too.
It's not only the twists and turns to beware of,
the straightaways can be tricky, too.

Best of luck.

Peace, Lee

You?re absolutely right, Lee - but that would have made for one long four-line poem! Thanks very much for the stars and comments.

Thanks so much for the kind words. FYI, I don?t drive, but I?ve certainly been working my way around those twists and turns by foot, bus and subway!

Well done for the contest. I did like this poem as it describes well our lives - lots of twists and turns. Unexpected happenings. It's how we lean through those curves. For me, it's about leaning on Jesus when the unexpected comes. Altho at times it seems God is silent, He's always watching and caring for us.
Nice poem - made me think.

Hi,
I really like your work. My first reaction is that it's Neat, Tidy and Crisp. Upon reread I noticed the smooth alliteration in the first half. Nice write. Good luck in the Contest.

Life's road is never straight; it is always a series of twists and turns, only strong and experienced can lead to the right way destination; well said, well done. Keep writing -- DR ALCREATOR
