IT MAY BE TWICE AS HARD TOMORROW

To procrastinate is to put off, leave for another day. That is not wise in the world we live, changes can overtake, come as a thief in the night.


Poem Artwork

The road ahead is decietful

wide and spacious

looks pretty full

yet take a look at the faces

they do not look happy

most look forlorn.

It may be twice as hard tomorrow

when euphoria turns to pain

when what you thought

was the right choice

yet its snakes and ladders again.

Times are certainly changing

faster than time exists

and God forwarned the right road

would be narrow and cramped.

Not the easy option

put off till kingdom come

but stand up and be counted

the race has already begun.

When we put off tomorrow, it comes too quickly. I've made it to my mantra to take care of the little things right away so I don't have to worry about them tomorrow. Sometimes I miss one, and it comes back to haunt me. We live complicated lives and need to simplify.

Wise words in your poem.

Ron
