Emergency Poem by Mamta Agarwal

Emergency



When faced with
An emergency,
We don’t dwell
Over our petty grievances.

We are
Completely present
In the moment.

As we focus
On the important
And the urgent

Knowing
There is no time
To waste,
We weigh
The pros and cons
In an instant.

The decision
Is made in a blink,
And we leave
The out come
To fate,

Why do we vacillate
Over this and that,
And waste
Precious moments
And just procrastinate?

And hesitate
To act
When our gut instinct
Gives us a distinct
Message

I guess
Because our minds
Our cluttered
With ceaseless noise
At all times.

COMMENTS OF THE POEM

Thinking too much makes all the difference It brings all the laws of life. When there is enough time Mind weighs each with precision. Creates such a confusion Where decision is unreachable. Quick mind gives sharp reaction. Very Well said in this poem. Thank you.
