All Work and No Play

Two roads diverged in a yellow 
wood
And I wondered if I really 
should
Take the one more traveled by
Or let my mind sprout wings 
and fly. 

I had a scheduled conference 
call
And a ton of please reply to all
I need that project yesterday
Too much work no time to play

Long I stood and looked down 
one
Carefully weighing what must 
be done
So long that I let the moment 
pass
Then took the safer well worn 
path.
