I can decide if I will let go
and enjoy the moment 
with the crepe myrtle across the way
and swing in the breeze with the sunflowers
or 
if I will pull the shade of fear over my eyes
and attach to my feet the weight of worry.

Dear, Glenn, swing in the breeze with the sunflowers and imbue
the crepe myrtle across the way, even if it's just for this moment for it is always this moment throughout every night and day, from cradle to grave it's still only now... Thank you for reminding  me to smile with the sunflowers in my vase . This is absolutely beautiful Glenn, like a refreshing breeze on an English muggy day...

Enjoy the breeze and the sunflowers and let worry be on it's way.  Worry doesn't accomplish anything.  The what ifs or should haves just blur the landscape my friend.  Lovely thoughtful writing.

It is a choice my friend ..,You say it well..

Strong piece, Glenn. The choice is always there.

You just be happy my poet friend. Swing with all the sunflowers in the breeze. Beautifully expressed.

Indeed, it's all about choices.
And ignoring regret afterwards.
Well said Glenn!

Awesome choice to have to make.  Appears obvious but, wait  just a minute - there are other things to consider.  Love this

I am terrible at choices yet when seen from another perspective, they seem so clear. This is clarity in seven lines, my friend.

Excellent. I echo what Steven E Y said! &#128512;

Wow coincidentally i come across a lot of crepe myrtle along my way whenever i go to the park and i wrote on it on another site. So I enjoyed your mention of it in this wonderful breezy poem. Kudos!
