Before Winter Poem by Howard The Motivational Poet Simon

Before Winter

Rating: 5.0


What's not done in the morning
Will have to be done at night
Wasted opportunities
Usually strike back and bite

Your summer you have squandered
Youth forever blown away
Raw rabid reality
Winter is not far away

Maximize every moment
Do your very best each day
You are a born champion
The price you're willing to pay

Your fight might almost be lost
The battle must still be won

Winter is almost over now, but the thoughts of it impending at the end of last summer spurred these thoughts in me as well.

We need to have faith in ourselves mostly when times are tough.. Shelley said it well, 'If Winter comes, can Spring be far behind? ' I really loved your sonnet.. Your poems are wonderful and full of positivity, , .. Thank you for sharing and being an optimist in this world of hopelessness and pessimism..

The positivity in this poem is infectious. That's the magic of words, they can change n transform. Even a pessimist would find solace n hope in these words and would enjoy the beauty of faith n belief. Winter as a symbol of raw rabid reality is spot on. Great work.

Wasting the precious time allotted to us is a crime as well as an unpardonable mistake! As the seasons will go in rapid succession, our childhood and youth will quickly give way to the infirmity of old age! At that stage even if we are resolved to set things right, we may not be able to do anything. So make the maximum of the opportunities that come our way and utilize the time sanctioned to us!
