    Ponder This?
    If this thought did not enter your mind then call me out.

    The question of your survival and whats your life all about.

    The frustrating struggle of todays problems and its many twist and turns.

    It raises the burning question,will you and I ever really learn.

    Perhaps, your mind is empty of this thought.

    Is not the morning,a dawn of new beginning that life is brought?

    So.. wisdom and understanding is the guiding light.

    To navigate thru life experiences with a relentless fight.

    Many of us say that we understand that obvious fact.

    But our own mis-steps daily demonstrates a lack of tact.

    I only ask that you ponder this?

    To not do so.. I would truly be remiss.

    Good words to toss about the brain, and then with some restrain take action as action is needed throughout the day and in every aspect of our lives... "But our own mis-steps daily demonstrates a lack of tact" - how true my friend, I couldn't have said it better. Write ON - Live Strong!!!

    kage...thanks for your analysis. The poem is a provocative writing that brings us face to face with certain issue that we don`t want to entertain.
