Reflexes

Like a flash, it comes,

helping us, when needed most,

it's not our conscious efforts,

but a play, of subconscious mind. 

Some were blessed, with natural traits,

having keen senses, quick limbs,

others work hard, to hone these skills,

to infused it deeper, like muscle memory. 

And they work, like a magic,

leaving people stunned, surprised, 

for, eyes can't catch the movement,

when reaction time, are in milliseconds. 

Reflexes... 

An innate potential, 

that body stores, as reservoir, 

which are drawn, in delicate situations,

be it in games, fights or accidents. 

So, let us learn, this useful skill,

and treasure them, as divine gift,

for, they can be sword, or the shield,

in this life, where hazards are filled. 

And it will take care, of our concerns,

when we need, split-second decisions,

naturally gifted, or refined with practice,

these are valuable assets, we would require.
