The Cautious Man
There was a very cautious man
Who never laughed or played.
He never risked, he never tried,
He never sang or prayed.
And when he one day passed away,
His insurance was denied.
For since he never really lived,
They claimed he never died.

Who Am I?
Who am I?
Where you are, I am.
Where you go, I go.
I am always and everywhere,
I am in everything.
Though perhaps you think of me not,
Though perhaps you do not even know,

There are stairs to fall down,
Curbs to trip over.
Falling trees.
Yet also new friendships, gardens to grow.
There is rejection, failure, disappointment.
There is acceptance, success, satisfaction.
I await you in every new attempt.
I am every risk you take,
And I am every risk you do not take.
