Waiting for the decision, indecision Depression, hesitation Another day has slipped away Opportunity ahead, procrastination instead Liberation, frustration Another day has slipped away Finished today, tomorrow Energetic, apathetic Another day has slipped away Making plans, idle hands Completed, defeated Another day has slipped away Years ahead, soon I’m dead Participation, separation End of days, they’ve all slipped away
Ok, I didn't get as much done today as I had hoped:).

Opportunity ahead, procrastination instead
Liberation, frustration
Another day has slipped away
That sure does nail down how I've felt on long weekends where all my good intentions to get things done end with me watching a Law and Order marathon on television followed by a good many naps!
Excellent image for this poem, James. I'd clean up the couple of specks in the sun and perhaps sharpen the boat a bit more but wow...what impact!
All to often, I find myself falling into the procrastination trap. Thanks for some very meaningful words. Love the photo, looks a little more luxurious than my dad's boat.
Hey James, Very powerful words......but my guess is procrastinators will read it later:cool:......hopefully this does make people think and take action! I don't know if I can handle both you and I writing poems in the same week:eek:!
