procrastination not be the crime

when the heart be heavy and the mind tired

by an occurrence abnormal all senses fired

one stumbles and worries what be the end

to the Universe a prayer positive thoughts to send.


how fragile we are in our humanity

to forget to live full an insanity

to brush aside those near and dear

for tomorrow be another day no fear.


and what if the day next all of a sudden not be

that loved one not around again to see

then the wish to rewind father time

and this time round procrastination not be the crime.


a blow a reminder to love real deep

excuses as to why not real cheap

nothing dearer than a parent old

having nurtured me to stand strong and bold.


aaah....a parent can only try their best

which child a parent does not test

i cannot imagine a better pair

than with my mother and father my love to share.


so blessed be all parents on Mother Earth

and wisdom be bestowed on their children at birth

to remember a parent to care and love

for one day they will be looking at us from above.


RB.
