Accessing What Needs To Be Done Poem by Terence George Craddock

an epic journey of momentous importance
duration distance begins with the first step
yet before ever the first step is taken years

of careful planning may have been spent
in finances resources required knowledge
is key what terrain variations will be crossed

must be crossed what extremes of weather endured
equipment food transportation life skill experiences
discipline leadership time climatic windows of opportunities

due to extremes of heat cold drought
rain flood water supply storms animal insect
disease dangers maps time limitations

all accounted for plus determination
moral can all stand or fall upon luck
intelligence is often quiet listening

accessing what needs to be done
