Reluctant Buyer's Lament

I hesitate to make a list

Of all the countless deals I've missed;

Bonanzas that were in my grip ---

I watched them through my fingers slip;

The windfalls which I should have bought

Were lost because I over thought;

I thought of this, I thought of that,

I could have sworn I smelled a rat,

And while I thought things over twice,

Another grabbed them at that price.

It seems I always hesitate,

Then make my mind up much too late.

A very cautious man am I

And that is why I never buy.

I chose to think and as I thought,

They bought the deals I should have bought.

The golden chances I had then,

Are lost and will not come again.

Today I cannot be enticed

For everything's so overpriced.

The deals of yesteryears are dead;

The Market's soft - - - and so's my head!

At times a teardrop drowns my eye

For deals I had, but did not buy;

And now life's saddest words I pen - - -

IF ONLY I'D DECIDED THEN ! ! !
