Progress Identified Is Progress To Make Poem by Lawrence S. Pertillar

During a repeating of a familiar feeding,
One needs not to be told...
When the time comes to leave.
With a knowing what to do,
And does it without an explanation.
Or an excuse to make in hesitation.

'Did you see that?
He just got up and left.
And we have yet to discuss the agenda.'

~Sometimes it is better to know,
Who is or who is not...
On the same page with the rest of us.

Now...
And without further adieu.
Let's get back to our priorities.
It was mentioned at our last meeting,
Steps we should have taken,
To correct in 1992...
Had not been done to do to investigate.
Has anyone come up,
With a suggestion or recommendation?
And remember...
Progress identified is progress to make.
We must recognize what it takes,
To remain and stay unified...
With our efforts to endeavor.~
