Undoing

by Joan

If I stop and take a minute

before I leap

ahead and can’t

undo what’s done, 

I could save more than that minute;

but even so,

it’s not easy

to remember

“not” can take me to the center

where freedom lies

and other knots

can be undone.

    You have an clever mind, and a very interesting sensibility. Topped off with an open heart. That’s pretty much the trifecta, as expressed in your poem

    I’m sorry, I don’t know how to spell trifecta & my spell check has an attitude.
