Random Decisions Made Poem by Lawrence S. Pertillar

When I awakened one day,
To feel absolutely free of complaint...
I knew the opportunity had come,
To rid myself of stress.
A dawning had arrived I needed to address.
And with a doing to seek my own happiness,
I took advantage immediately of this feeling to make...
Random decisions made to take a walk,
To places I had not before experienced.
With an observing those looking as if,
They carried the World on their shoulders.
Faces with frowns and heads held down.
Some limping from aches and pains,
To bear the weight and appearing strained!
With more of it invested while producing nothing gained.
And I noticed in their doing of it,
How I attempted to do the same thing.
