Procrastination… is what
happens when there is
too Much time before IT
Must be done or … you
simply fail to make a Plan;
Perhaps FEAR contributes to
putting off what needs DO–
ing as you wrestle with…
DISappointing your
own expectations. One
Remedy is to take wild
worries… captive and
tame THIS very precious
moment…why miss life?

This is a “golden shovel” poem. The final words of each line form a phrase from another poet; in this case, the final thought from Mary Oliver’s poem, “The Summer Day.” Linking to dVerse poets where Grace invites us to try this form.
