Today's Poem

Spinning Plates

Life can be like spinning plates
Complete a task, one more awaits
So take your time and don't rush in
No stopping things once they begin

Decisions must be made each day
Take care of what you choose to say
But don't stay silent, that won't do
Some work is waiting just for you

And lazy people must beware
Of simply sitting with no care
For one day time has flown away
Then only age will have its way

Take action now and make your plan
The race so long ago began
You know it's just the fool who waits
Success may come from spinning plates

It's tricky, like spinning plates - enjoying life while we search...for stuff like ourselves, success, tranquility, etc.
