Procrastination

And so it came to pass
You lost your dream
In life's swiftness of days
Time was not your friend
You didn't care enough for it
The wanton spirit seduces
Procrastination is an evil ploy
Time disdains tardiness
To waste is a trait of fools
That in the end leaves one
Pondering  the what if's
While floundering in self-pity
Having lost the thirst to dream

Yes yes yes live your dream....Not today..But now..Start it now now now, knowing where you want to be in three years time..



The father of lies robs us of time... A little more slumber, a little more sleep, and poverty creeps over... LOL Bloody catholic school teachers..



SO SEND OUT YOUR MANUSCRIPT TODAY... whoever!!

Time does what it does.. moves on and does not seek our permission. Appreciating it is up to us.. well expressed piece here.

He who hesitates is lost in the swirl of dawdling as the prize ebbs away from you like ship without its rudder.

" It is better to have loved and lost...than never having to loved at all "..

You deliver some timely and wise advice about marking or wasting time..
