Choices

First there is Choice A, and then of course Choice B... And under special circumstances, even a Choice C On Monday, the decision seemed quite clear But by Friday, my confidence began to disappear.. Choice A, and my family will probably be upset If I choose Choice B, I may be living with regret And when considering an alternative Choice C Who knows what the ramifications just might be So I keep on worrying and its hard to get to sleep Counting choices instead of counting sheep So from Scarlet O'Hara a tip I'll borrow..... Procrastinate! Ill think about it all tomorrow!

just like me here nicely done ----- Below find one of my favorites of your many Thank you for commenting on my few. ------------ My journey started in a small way.. Walking, jogging, sometimes running. It has started and stopped, Been derailed by arid landscapes, and drowned by self doubt. While the view is ever changing And the road can be bumpy, The journey has been the thing That stays with me during bleak times, And lights the dark parts of my heart.

That's what I'd try to do, Barbara. But sometimes it's hard to sleep with such things on our minds. And we start dreaming up "choices" from A-Z! Thanks for sharing your humor, dear. Love, Carolyn
