Hesitancy

It is brainy to be a skeptic.

The mind sometimes needs to sort things out,

the variables are too confusing.

Better to wait than to take a chance.

And, it is hearty to be doubtful.

Something is off and shakes to the core,

commitment is just impossible.

Better to have heartfelt clarity.

It’s soulful to question character.

The person seems seedy and a con,

following violates my being.

Better to pray for revelation.

No good can come of hesitating.

Indeed, it defies logic – life – love,

The “principle” can never be more…

essential than imagination.

So true, “they who hesitate are lost”.

We must see, feel, and embrace ourselves –

Pray with clarity and take a chance

on the happenstance of happiness.

Well, for years I was smart. I recommend pleasant. You may quote me." Well, for years I was smart, oh so very smart, I too recommend pleasant - Trust the harmony
