Timing
Timing is the key to whether
Many things pan out.
We wait too long, we’ve missed the boat;
We know what that’s about.
Procrastination may cause
Opportunities to fade
And then regret kicks in
For the decisions we’ve not made.
The timing of a venture
May determine its success.
Too soon or late may wreck it,
Thereby adding lots of stress.
Comedians are criticized
If they can’t nail their timing,
Like rhythmless musicians
(Or a poet bad at rhyming).
