Cautiously we move through life, <br />From day to day, <br />From strife to strife. <br />Looking over our shoulders, <br />Ever aware of those <br />Seeking to destroy our faith, <br />In the human race... <br />Looking both ways before crossing the street, <br />Guarded of strangers we chance to meet, <br />Carefully handling the rose with the thorn, <br />Then being stomped on the toe with the corn!<br /><br />Dorothy (Alves) Holmes<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/stop-look-listen/
