The Jump From Thought To Action
Oh the things that I could do
The art, I could create
All the dreams that would come true
I could be so very great
The goals, upon my belt
And talents in my possession
The souls, my gifts might help
Completed tasks and lessons
I could be in such good shape
Eat healthy and be fit
Feel proud, for goodness sakes
Finish instead of quit
A soccer mom, I could be
Preparing home cooked meals
Full of sensuality
Giving my husband all the feels
I could wake without prompt
If I just accrued the habit
I would launch my days off
And beat the morning traffic
I could learn what it means to thrive
If I had the motivation
I’d feel happy and alive
I would reach my destination
There could be a scenario
Where my purpose was defined
Despite where this life would go
I’d feel it all the time
If I could get beyond the “could”
Just get passed the thought
Act, where once, plan, stood
Keep my attention from getting caught
