Fumbling tasks to the left. <br />Replacing new mistakes for old. <br />Where have you gone? <br />How busy can you be? <br />Did the quick breaks stretch overtly? <br />Have all those stolen mp3's distracted you? <br /> <br />Be firm in building, creating. <br />For the race is sometimes won. <br />Most often by those with diligence, <br />not negligence. <br />Be courageous young man! <br />Let your father’s rigor inspire you. <br /> <br />And lest you forget, <br />Mother’s love and prayers. <br />They have allowed you silent peace. <br />The ability to perform in utmost pressure. <br />You are capable, yet squander your intelligence. <br />Writing poems, listening to music, being busy.<br /><br />Reginald Goodridge<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/being-busy/
