Don't Delay To Make That Move

Lawrence S. Pertillar 1947 (Connecticut)



Each day.
If the effort is made,
Progress...
Will take you away from confusion.

Each day.
With this doing needed done.
Know it that you will become,
Free and away from confusion.

Don't...
Delay to make that move.
For you.
Don't...
Delay to make move.

Each day.
If the effort is made,
Progress...
Will take you away from confusion.

Don't...
Be afraid,
To make that move.
For you.
To make that move.
Don't...
Be afraid,
To make that move.
Knowing this,
You can do.

Get up in the morning determined to shine,
As bright as Sun.
Get up and know,
Yesterday has been done.

Don't...
Be afraid,
To make that move.
Don't...
Be afraid,
To choose that move for you to do.

Get up in the morning determined,
You will shine.
Brighter.
Each day.
If the effort is made,
You will feel the progress.
Inside of you to stay.

And...
Each day,
If the effort is made,
You will know progress.
With a getting up determined,
This is what is wanted to be done.

Each day.
Don't be afraid,
To make that move.

Do this,
For you.
Make that move.
Do this,
For you.
Make that move.
Choose to do it for you.
Make that move.

Get up and do it.
To make that move.
Don't delay.
To make that move for you!
