Simple Sunday Picture Challenge Forks Off!
Welcome to the CPC’s Simple Sunday Picture Challenge!
This week we feature a Turkish nature photographer who uses the display name *m-eralp,
and is now located in Finland.
His short biography on deviantart.com reads:
I was born in Turkey lived in Istanbul for years.
After moving to some other countries i finally ended up in Finland
I speak German and English.
My Finnish is not better than Tarzan’s for now, but learning it every day.
I love Finland and its wonderful nature,
which inspires me a lot for photography.
I bought my first DSLR after joining DA.
So i am still new into photography,
but i have great passion for it and trying to improve myself.
I think i have learned a lot in past 4 months,
and i still got much more to learn.
On the other hand i am limited with the equipment i have,
but i am improving that too, as much as i can afford.

Welcome to the CPC Simple Sunday Picture Challenge! As you can see the challenge is to choose which poetic path to take. Your muse’s choice!
Sorry had to brighten to read I cannot get the hang of photobucket lately 🙁
CHOICES
In choosing the write path to take
no one wants to make mistakes.
The high road may be tough to climb
with noble lines and witty rhyme.
The lower route is chosen when
presumtuousness rules the pen.
Opaque comes not from wise musing,
but oozing from poetic rusing.
The reader knows when being fooled
by sensing reason overruled
by obfuscation in the guise
of obscure words of excess size.

TWO WAY TRAFFIC
*
Two way street
Always lead to some where
Some are dark other
Just a way to be
Few be paved very clear
More be dirt
Hard to follow
Yet be found
Like light into darkness
Are even darkness into the light
Make it easy on self always
But take the right path
We do so have a choose

Don’t let looks deceive
appealing both may be
wonderous mystic colors
but slight of hand the key
similar though these two choices
as the beauty of the rise or setting sun
just don’t forgo moon’s blessings
for in your heart
is only one….

While standing at a crossroads in life,
Do we turn to the right or the left?
Do we take the high road or the low road?
Do we take the easy path or the difficult one?
Decisions are not easy for those struggling for direction.
And sometimes the many choices and signs become overwhelming.
Life is not an easy road for most;
For each is individual unique and personal.
And that is why while standing at a crossroads,
Only we can make the decision for ourselves.

CONSIDERING THE FORKS IN THE ROAD
Considering the choices
I’ve had along the way,
some so clearly marked
by signs and lights,
illuminated so bright
and no mistaking the way
and some not so clear,
the path rather dim,
I wonder now
if it really matters at all
what direction I take
when I reach that inevitable
fork in the road;
a choice to be made,
which path to take
through the deep forests
and mountain passes of this life,
to get to where I want to be
when the sun goes down
at my journey’s end.
And in another time and place
(not so long ago I’d like to think)
I wondered what I might have missed
(if anything at all)
by going this way or that,
or whether or not
I’d have another chance
to retrace or erase
those steps I’ve taken
and start my trek
all over again.
But I must conclude,
upon considering the choices,
that the most important thing
to me in the end
is that I took
at least one step
in whatever direction
and persevered to
wherever the path led,
that I didn’t get stuck
(or at least not for too long),
forever stopped in my tracks,
unable to decide on a path
at a fork in the road.

We all get that fork in the road but we all find the way thru the path. And we find what we looking for TY Barb. :love: :love: :love:
