ANYONE CAN NAY-SAY

Anyone can nay-say
and usually be right,
even an imbecile may smile
and sagely repeat
how bright morning
turns to cold night

Anyone can nay-say
and usually be right

That's not to say
there's not a time to nay-say,
that bright morning
turns not to cold night,
or that passion and action
does not lose traction,
that wings don't fall off
into the sun

Anyone saying so
would be a fool indeed,
but this little point
dear reader won't you heed?

Though those who under-take journeys
across seas of new ideas
don't usually make it alive...

only of those who leave
do any ever arrive
