Driving in the heavy downpour
Wiper stuck....
Visibility poor,
Images blurred and distorted
Feeling edgy and panicky
Trying to focus
Could wait for the storm to pass
Or meet it head on
With belief and
Experience to guide
And expertise as compass
Or experiment
Things can go wrong
Or not.
Life! and its little lessons.

Thanks Leo.
DeleteI love the lines "Could wait for the storm to pass or meet it head on". In life, we all have to make choices, some large and some small, and we need to be self-aware enough to know what is the right thing to do in that moment. Loved this, Janu! Blessings!
ReplyDeleteThank you Martha.
