Thoughts-in-a-Jam!


Blog 310:
Snooze or kick away covers?
No time to dilly-dally …
Awake, sleepy head!
Enough is enough, lazy bones!

Can’t ignore those moaning excitement down steps
Can’t go past the critters waiting eagerly
Give each one the clamored hug
Evenly share that loving embrace
‘It’s a great morning, little ones!”

Head to the kitchen …
Pour out some of that rich, aromatic coffee
Tune in to the day’s squawk box
Slowly sip that happy, waking ‘juice’
Gulp it down nice and easy
Right along that mild mood ...
Play in mind how the day might run
Twelve hours: waste it or make it count?
Day is yours to unwind soon!
Time is in your hands!


Routine chores’ round up perhaps?
   -little one’s need water and food
   -laundry wash or press daily builds up
   -dishes undoubtedly get in a stack
   -counters get cluttered
   -cook stove undergoes ugly spill battery
   -dust thickens every which way
   -cobwebs nesting up the ceilings must come down
   -trash must get to outdoor collection bins
   -leaves and twigs accumulate on the porch
   -baths and commodes assemble scum and grime
   -grass, hedges and weeds crowd flower beds
   -grocery lists grow long and require filling

Now … which gets attention first … last?
 
A pause … a sigh …
Perhaps, just perhaps …
Do nothing more than you really want …

   -Pick up, immerse in a novel from the stacks
   -Snuggle, rock in that soft, comfy chair
   -Get lost between movie characters and plots
A pause … a sigh …
Perhaps, just perhaps …
Do nothing more than your heart’s desire …

   -Take a long walk outdoors
   -Daydream … reflect … bask in thoughts
   -Pick up a project once begun and dropped

 Now … that packed list is right in your grasp!
