when the fog rolls in . we concentrate on the path . and take the next step
when it is unclear . if the warning’s old or new . proceed with caution
the threat is noticed . cautiously the turkey moves . away from the road
with understanding . comes compassion, escaping . is not an option
before stepping up . first, understand the risks, then . proceed with caution
finding a new lake . the heron steps carefully . testing the waters
the sign says danger . the rescue device is placed . ‘cause some won’t notice
even a clear path . needs to be taken slowly . in a winter storm
facing the unknown . look for signs that say caution . go accordingly
in the midst of change greater caution is required; threats hide in plain sight
