Thought before action is what some people do

While others try to leap over the morning dew

They then fall and slip on the glistening grass

As the early sun rises quickly and time has past

Then it is noon even though the grass is dry

But your sprained ankle is your excuse to hide

Then the sun sets rapidly escaping the earth

And you’re still swollen from a muscle that hurts

You never gave yourself time to heal

Instead you limped until the pain was real

Then twilight began so you crawled outside

Asking God if he could give you more time

Then the next day you walked without a crutch

Because you knew that your ankle wouldn’t give up

And time wouldn’t stop you, from doing what you love
