When You Push Poem by Lawrence S. Pertillar

When you push...
Don't turn your back upon a cliff.
Or try to balance on the edge of it.
When you push.

When you push...
Don't think for a moment,
I will insist you resist this!
Or think not to inflict...
An exchange with you conflict!

When you push...
And you have been warned!
A visit to your end will come to you quick.
As your fingertips slip...
From that cliff,
With my assistance.
When you continue to push!
And push.
And push!

Think of it,
As a gift to realize your wishes.
When you push to give...
Expect to receive!
