Float into the future
with light feet
Do not tread heavily or
the earth may swallow
tomorrow
Let life unfold as it will
learn to hold still
until the time is right.
Rushing into the dark
out of fear
is never prudent
Learn to ...
take a breath
when impatience
tugs on your sleeve.

Thank you for this really descriptive poem which I can relate to. Cheers
Beautifully put; an excellent subject to consider.
May I make one teeny suggestion? Consider: 'is never prudent' which I think gives the idea even more 'power' as 'wise' and 'prudent' are so closely related. I like the way it smacks you. Always with respect. Always.
Please advise if I have missed a subtlety.
