Procrastination Poem by Tony Adah

Never delay to do
What now beckons and begs to be done
The snake delayed and hands and legs eluded him
In a meeting where appendages were given
The hen went late and her knees were given
Behind her legs
The toad hopped lazily and missed a tail
Snails waited to make their houses
Over their heads and got no legs
Bats went late and met wings
Without feathers but took parches of hair
Tortoise slept all day
And lost her speech
So what you want to do
Do now!
