Never take for granted the greatest power: { An Acrostic}

Poem Title :Never take for granted the greatest power , the power to choose.
Acrostic Poem 166b




Never take for granted the greatest power , the power to choose !
Every concession , or subsidy in whatever form ,as a contribution or donation to your charity.
Value this as a highest prize ,volition is the sacred power to choose , so use that power well.
Efficacy empowering the production of results by marching forward in a positive direction.
Ranges of choices sometimes Oh so wide as to make a decision very difficult indeed.

Two equally and typically undesirable alternatives we get to know as a dilemma.
An act of choosing ,to take up one option as opposed to another to maintain momentum.
Knowing that there is no apparent option rather than real ,you have but “Hobson`s Choice”
Embarras de richesses you become spoilt for choice is the other side of the coin.

From the comparison between the humble Poet and the Power-mad Megalomaniac
Optimise in an act of choosing betwixt the two ,voluntary, of one`s own free will . “Choose”
Rights to act or judge by your power of choice, you may call this discretion. One or `t`her.

God grants us such power as yet unmaterialised and unrealized he labels potential.
Relinquish that potential at your peril , you may never live to see that choice again.
An area of power and influence, you may get to understand as your domain,reflect .
Never take for granted the greatest power , the power to choose.
Twitter and chat with all and sundry . Relatives you're born too...friends you choose.
Even if you use your power of wit and influence, and see it as sway and clout you throw about.
Delegate or depute and assign somebody to make your choices for you. No don't quit !

The A to Zee of choice takes little time to ponder if you take for granted , power to choose.
Hub of influence.power centre ganglion from which nerve fibres radiate into every solution.
Even by commencing from “A” Aha, Eureka , you have chosen first time lucky but wait.

Great though he may appear as the “Boy” of your dreams, will he stand the test of time?
Retiring back into your shell , your “Colleagues” at work never to choose to know the real you.
Every “Demi-God” or Elder that you meet and give respect to, spoil it all by choosing not to.
An “F” word muttered under your breath . A “Gender” question which choice of path.?
To “ Hero-worship” then a real life commitment. “Interpreter” of choices through a Drago Man
Established in the art of choice as lead by “Jesus” Christ. “Knowledge” that will never fail.
Superimposed ,will “Liquidize” and blend all the choices that are available “Mmmmm”
To the most “Natural “ Smoothy that you have ever chosen to drink. “Ohhh “Yes !


Pause and “pause” again , do we really understand the “Power” of choice. Procrastinate !
Oh put off until tomorrow “ Quit “ whilst you are ahead , “Realise “your winnings in the now .
Weather you “Seek” perfection. Or just an easy way out. “Take” heart it is Your Choice.
Ethereal choice becomes the mother of invention when and where necessity dwells
React with an “un-earthly “ prowess and ability to establish what was to be the right choice.

The “Very” only choice that you could have made under the circumstances , bono-fide!
Having and knowing you have the power of choice, “Well” it leaves it in your hands.
Even if you get the choice “Wrong” this time it is your mistake , no one else's.

Pretty soon you will know the error and mark it with a “X” and strive to get it right next time.
Oh ! Only “You” have this very individual Power to make up your own mind. Don't you know?
We can all be as “Zealous” and pedantic as you like in life but choices win through in the end.
Even if you cannot be bothered to take the choice to read this prose on and on and on.
Reacting in a moment of impatience , “What am I doing wasting time reading this rubbish for?”

To have the power of choice is such a valuable power, not granted to most folk of the World.
Oh stay with me , tell me that you understand the meaning of this poem, do I make it clear?

Can you choose, do you choose , are you exercising the sacred power that you are given.
Holy powers , not given to the timid mice to sit upon the fence waiting for the right choice.
Oh no ! Never take for granted the greatest power, the power to choose.
Onlookers and bystanders are you learning from any of the simple examples I have set.?
See unless you see and understand the good and bad choices made from age to age.
Earth and the Universe will have failed in it`s quest to provide the Heaven that we seek !
