Crooked Consequences Poem by Lyn Paul
Crooked Consequences
Nothing in life is straight
Nor is it easy
Black, white or colour
Raw or cooked
Truth or dare
Should you just follow
Or Face the consequences
Consequences now seen
Determined by highs
Determined by lows
Never having held back in honesty
Has brought heavy weight
Yet eyes need to be opened
So many just riding in life
On others boards
Others waves
Too afraid to speak
Afraid to give ideas
Yet so many want to listen
Learn we must
To not follow
Listen to every word
Learn we must
To hear
Whatever can be heard
So feel thecalmness in nature
May itbring free spirit
To follow who you are
It will give guidance and direction
And catch you
If
Freefalling
Listen we must to other
And too........
We all need to be heard.

Moms have long advised to 'count to ten' Taking time to think things through. see consequences and put things in perspective. Good advice
As we get on with life sometimes things are missed. Time to reset and rethink is always time well spent.74842
Learn we must To not follow Listen to every word Learn we must To hear Whatever can be heard......yes, we should do
A deep poem, there is a calmness in nature that connects with us letting us descern true right from wrong, following others is not fitting when others are hurt
So much wisdom here in not so many words. We do all wish to be heard. Well done.
We all wish to be heard! Equally important it is to listen carefully to others. Only after listening to the story completely and weighing the pros and cons of an action, arrive at conclusions and move into action! Very practical tips for life, Lyn!
