The Truth About Tigers

Dreams lacking action leave nothing to show,
Time carefully marked till the moment feels right,
Plot for too long and you never will go.

Talk of adventure, in whispers kept low,
Not daring today to step into the fight,
Dreams lacking action leave nothing to show.

Knowledge left idle, allowed just to flow,
Endless planning delays any flight,
Plot for too long and you never will go.

Brave souls stalled inside familiar comfort move slow,
Excuses built tall, chance slipping from sight,
Dreams lacking action leave nothing to show.

Falter and wait as opportunities blow,
Visions once sharp now fade into night,
Plot for too long and you never will go.

As the day closes its last soft glow,
The sun and the earth circling toward night,
Dreams lacking action leave nothing to show,
Plot for too long and you never will go.
