Take it

by sammiej   Apr 14, 2017


Take it...

Take an opportunity,
Take it with both hands,
Take it whilst you’re able,
For as long as it withstands
Untried , untested challenges,
That life throws in your stream,
Take it whilst you’re able
To turn it to a dream.

Take that opportunity
Don't excuse the chance
It may create some problems
Set you to dodge or dance.
Forsake it and you may regret
The choices it could proffer,
Steal yourself and make that stride
Don t miss it, you may suffer

    Couldn't agree more: if we don't take the opportunities while we can, we will almost certainly end up regretting them when the chances have gone.

    All the best,

    I love this! Very well written and the rhyming is smooth and a joy to read. I love how powerful this is, and full of inspiration! To take that leap of faith and just go for it! Following your dreams and goals can be absolutely terrifying...but a lot of times it can be so worth it! :) Well done!
