Procrastination

To do
Or not to do?
Tomorrow is next day
I promise I will do it then
That's when!

Hello Socrates , I hope you are well

as the saying goes ,

"don't put off til tomorrow , what you can do today " :-))"
However ,most of us will still "procrastinate " and leave things "til tomorrow "
This made me smile --thankyou for posting this -

Thanks for your comment. Do you know the song: "Manana"? It is about procrastination. It was released in 1947 and it was a big hit.





The first link gives the song by Peggy Lee.
The second link gives the lyrics.
I am sure this will take some of the older folks at Poets' Corner down memory lane.

Have a nice day!

Thanks for your comment, Jesse.
I suppose all of us are guilty of procrastination at some time or the other. I think the problem is when it becomes a chronic habit.
Are you referring to attempting a cinquain? You are an experienced poet. I am sure you can do a great job in writing a cinquain. Give it a try!
Have a nice day!
