Rictameter



                                       dear God
                                    cannot  turn back
                                 must keep on going on
                           what is coming 'round the corner?
                       the roads are hazardous in the desert
                          i will cross my fingers , pray for
                                    no oncoming traffic
                                       could be lucky
                                           dear God

    Follow the 'Highway Code', (desert edition), drive cautiously around bends and keep your finger's crossed that other road users are sensible too. Be prepared for emergencies and hope for the best.

    I liked this -- it reminds me hope the logging trucks aren't coming down!

    Sometimes you've gotta keep going and just hope and pray you'll get through. Great poem!

    This could be read both ways, right? Well, pretty lovely. Keep praying. :)

    I pray like this in the snow. It's snowing now.

    Spot on. I should recite it every morning, as I get out of bed!
