CATCH AND RELEASE

                                                           


Life is flowing like the River Nile 

From south to north revealing the files

Each unfolds like the various waves

Some are easy while others do cave

In between the tides, the work is hard

Try to keep the inner self on guard

Saying no to malice and to pain

Never striving to hurt or defame 

Looking north to reach the wanted prize

A rainbow, a star, a new sunrise

As the occasional bite will smart

Putting undue stress onto the heart

There’s so much more in life to embrace

Best to unravel it face to face

Look in a mirror to see what’s there

Knowing someone is right there to care

That’s the person extending a hand

A best friend guide on how best to land.

Listen and hear the echoing voice

Weigh all the options and make a choice

Life is flowing with plenty of fish

It might be time to try a new dish.
