Heed your source of wisdom; discerning truths as they do speak
Time to time things go awry, without paddle, up the creek
At times reactions happen, blink and flash within an eye
Lightning strikes in less a second, at speeds you can’t deny
Cobra lunging forward, arching apex, struck out and hissed
Stomach starts to quiver, although before did not exist
Actions and reactions shudder, once lured into a fight
Sleight of hand controls the mind, lying down when it’s upright
Listen gently inner feelings; they justly know your way
Keep on pressing forward, prevent avoiding all dismay
Minds boggle us the odd time, they appear so grandiose
Appoint trust within your gut, to your chest forever close.

The whole lot of us would keep out of trouble if we went with gut instincts instead of our hearts whimsical chancery – excellent advice! And more rhyming sorcery, my talented, rhyme-scheming friend :)

Ah yes AnnMarie, but the heart leaves room for delectable flavors that the gut may remove from the menu! Both bring balance and assembly, when needed! Alan :o)

Wonderful advice. In my experience – gut instincts are rarely wrong. I love the way you put it all into words, and the use of the phrase, ‘without paddle, up the creek’ makes me smile. :)

AnnMarie called it “rhyming sorcery”; at it’s best. The surface wordplay is magical but what you’ve woven underneath offers its equal weight in wisdom. You’re a master at the craft! Cheers ~
