I might have carried it one step further. Perhaps: Instill restraint upon your heart until the danger's passed. I was looking for the 'I' and I wasn't expecting that 'R'.
Still a great poem!
Thanks so much for sharing!
Hugs and Lollipops from my heart to yours!

    Thank you for the review. The rules say four letter in succession and the last one is any other letter of the alphabet. I would have loved to use and "i" there but I got the impression it was against the rules.

You've said a whole lot in these few short words, and they about hit home with every one of us I'm sure. We just need to keep in control about as much as we can. Thanks for sharing.

    Thank you for the review and comments. I'm good about handing out advice but not so good at following my own. LOL

I like the offered advices offered in the last line:"Restrain your heart until the danger's passed" it's hard to contain our panic in front of danger:) Thank you for sharing and good luck with the contest.

I just woke up from a dream, a reality that's consigned to the past, but in my working days of a younger me, worries that we're handled well, but this reminded me of grasping the realities of now, which I can live in well. Beautifully written Beth, loved the theme, good luck, blessings Roy

"You're emotions" should be Your emotions.

Suggest making "Feeling" Feelings since you used "Emotions".

Good ABC poem.

First line draws readers in with a this is going to be good opening.

This is very wise advice. It's like that passage in Jeremiah that warns us about the deceitfulness of the human heart. We do need the Spirit to guide and control our emotions! Best wishes in the contest!

You're emotions aren't reliable. (Your)

Feeling seldom reflect reality. (Feelings)
