Must Think Twice.... Poem by Sylvia Frances Chan

Must Think Twice....

Rating: 5.0


I am ambidextrous,
able to use the right and left hands equally well.
few of us are naturally ambidextrous

I remember Mom confided me
she ate food contained much iron
during her pregnancy
I think because my blood is too ferriferous
so I was born ambidextrous

IF i tell them, they say Oh you're so handy
with left and right hands both alright
not at all my dear friend on poem hunter
instead of bringing me much joy
the letters changed per accident
you can read no correct words anymore
the "i" instead of an "o"
and all that much more

of course, I do realize those wrong words
afterwards

changed and corrected perfectly
but if you do that on poem hunter poem site
that needs not a minute nor an hour
but a tremendous long night

meanwhile the poem was submitted
I did correct it
but it was not yet visible for the eyes
must think twice....

being ambidextrous, not as handy as many men thought
rather disastrous, I reckon....

POET'S NOTES ABOUT THE POEM
I am ambidextrous,
able to use the right and left hands equally well,
few of us are naturally ambidextrous
Being Ambidextrous, not as handy as men thought,
rather disastrous, I reckon
must check and recheck
and be wise
to be able to think twice


Created with much care and love,
sincerely,

Thank you so much for this great compliment, Dr. Tony. My Mum said once that my Dad was a walking dictionary, perhaps I have inherited his genes, but this is only an explanation for your valuable remark concerning my being ambidextrous.Thank U for all your constant support, Dr.Tony

Using right and left hand equally amazes mind but this can be possible. Ambidextrous persons can properly use hands. Mother's love and caring always we remember. Good food should be eaten with due care. Wrong words can be corrected perfectly sooner or later. Thinking twice before posting is nice. You have corrected the poem and done a good job. This is a very powerful and brilliant poem excellently drafted...10
