I'm squashed by indecision
Loaded down by care
If there's a firm position
You won't find me there

Fence sitting is my practice
I dither to and fro
In saturate of fractious
I come after I go

I waver with a quaver
My vote is one to share
If there's a closer shaver
My vote will not be there

I'm clouded by confusion
First its yes and then it's no
You'll give me contusions
If it continues to be so

Now I quaver when I waver
For two minded I won't be
With the passion of a raver
Single focus sets me free

Or maybe not...

Here in the midst of my lonely abyss, a single joy I find...your presence in my mind.  Unknown

Excellent writing, Keth...
You certainly don't waffle as you weave your words...
I thought this to be very creative, indeed

Witty! Clever! Enjoyable! --and well-written to boot--or not to boot--that is the question--or is it? I don't know, yes I do! It is! But then again...tehe

Guess I can identify with this poem...well, maybe some of the time...

(giggles in delight) This thought goes through my head when I decide what I want for lunch, and I have the song "Did you ever have to make up your mind?" in my head on and on! (giggles) This is so cute, sweet friend, I love it, we all love you so much! You have such a beautiful heart, sweet Kethry, thank you for sharing!



May love and light always shine upon you!

Love,

I like it!
(or I don't)
I'll read it again!
(or won't)
I'll make up my mind
(or not)
Your words leave me cold
(or hot)
I'll make  up my mind
(I think)
As soon as I have
A drink
You really are great!
(I guess)
I want to see more!
(or less)


LOL! No, koala kid, there's no indeciviness about your wit...this poem proves it

Keth beloved one, okay I’m biased, but I did not coerce or make any of these readers give you rave reviews. You got them because you deserve them, witty and with style darling heart. You know this is utterly wonderful and I love it totally. Loved ‘Deer’s response too. This is one of your special ones the smile on my face is broad darling heart


Love and warm stuff
As always
Mushy

Breathe through the heat of our desire
Thy coolness and they balm
Let sense be dumb let flesh retire
Speak through the earthquake wind and fire
