Savings and tomorrow

I found this poem on one of my friend, Vinoo John's blog. Interesting read.

Reflects the mindset of many of us who were/are waiting for tommorrows to start investing :-)

I hesitate to make a LIST

Of all the countless opportunities I've MISSED

Bonanzas that were in my GRIP

I watched them through my fingers SLIP

The windfalls that I should have BOUGHT

We lost because I OVERTHOUGHT

I thought of this, I thought of THAT

I could have swore I smelled a RAT

And while I thought things over TWICE

Another grabbed them at the PRICE

It seems I always HESITATE

And make my mind up much too LATE

A very cautious human am I

And that is why I never BUY

When others culled those sprawling FARMS

And welcomed contracts with open ARMS

I chose to think and while I THOUGHT

They bought the deals I could have BOUGHT

The golden chances I had THEN

Today I cannot be ENTICED

For everything's so OVERPRICED

At times a teardrop drowns my EYES

For opportunities I had but did not BUY

And now life's saddest words I PEN

"if only I'd invested THEN"
