3WW given words:
desire shiver wilt
Desire to do good is a journey of fulfillment
It takes a long while just to create awareness
let alone to achieve some kind of success
In an environment of heavy snow weighing
on the branches one can expect divergent opinions as
visibility is scant and the cold is debilitating
adverse conditions will impinge adversely
How does one measure up to the intended target
so that a designated path is carved out
To plan is to play host to one’s ideals
opening up to the shivers of intrusion
for one’s inclination is often questioned
It is not so much to ridicule but more of wanting to
understand
For this same reason is the necessity of making it known
The ultimate aim will conjure a picture of the likely pattern
in every participants’ imagination of difficulties to
surmount
It can help if a visual adaptation is presented
This will impose the responsibility on those leading the
show
to give a good briefing with lots of multi-media
components
It can bring divergent assumptions to a realistic assessment
Good leadership is essential to avoid wilting under
pressure
The journey’s end is the satisfaction gained with no
expectations
of monetary implications hidden within
Only then the satisfaction is fulfilled

Wow, when you wrapped it up with that line about good leadership, the whole thing came together!
ReplyDeleteFor me anyway.
I'm a little slow when it comes to smart poetry.
Now, now, Alex sir! I tend to disbelief the latter assertion! Thanks!
DeleteHank
It is always good to have hope.
ReplyDeleteYes.. a marketing plan with poetry.. target audience in mind.. effective visual presentation of communication to remove the adversity of snow weighted minds.. to clarity of understanding.. the message intended to sell what is intended.. with no concern of financial gain.. the poetry of marketing altruism.. is truly a fine tuned art..here..:)
ReplyDeleteHave to stay strong under pressure and that will sure see you to the end.
ReplyDeleteYes good leadership is an essential to make progress in this complex world of ours--especially if one wants to do good. And interesting journey indeed.

ReplyDeleteAh, you must know of my predilection of making fun of the corporate world... love the way you subverted corporate speak with snow imagery. As for the adverse conditions impinging adversely... a genius of overstatement and redundancy!

ReplyDeleteHank,
ReplyDeleteThe journey through life can bring many emotions, expectations, trials and indeed, rewards. Along the way, one can only give what is possible of oneself, to the various tasks...The road can be easy, or bumpy...I know that already!!
Superb example of living and life, along the road!!
