Thought

a primate exclusive

The premier event of life
happening in the mind
The beginning of awareness
for actions of every kind

 

Knowing had to start
for any act to begin
Acts are what we do
inspired from within

 

Results then confirm
the truth of every event
Hindsight being essential
for time that was well spent

 

Actions supporting thought
continue the power to learn
The source of our values
the reason for our concern

 

Think along with me
we will both find what is right
We can create what is good
and give meaning to our fight

 

Our battle needs to overcome
the mistakes and errors of the past
We will then have a better future
and be able to make it last

 

Some will not want to join
the efforts to find the good
But when they see our success
they may help us as they should

 

We cannot wait for others
or no one will begin
Leading the cause for the good
may be the only way to win

"Leading the cause for the good/may be the only way to win" - Perfect closing line to a thought provoking poem.
