Every Time, You....... Poem by Jayatissa K. Liyanage

Overcome a barrier, big or small
Wait, just a while to look back
To comprehend assertively
What, why and how it was caused

Escape being fallen in to a pitfall
Deep or shallow, could have broken a limb
Inquire conscientiously and unearth
What, why and who did it

Start feeling scratches by thorns
Stop proceeding, ere they bruise, cut and pierce
To apprehend articulately
What, why and how such was caused

Get attracted to a carrot offered in front
Being aroused by taste, hold on
Ere you devour it, think prudently
What, why and who offered same

View back, expending little time
Lest you bump into the same again
Spares your life, for journey founded on
What, why and how to accomplish
