I.
It is not the best weather
Grey skies and winter chill
Dulls my red fancy feathers
Still I go tap dancing, a thrill
II.
Her singing is not too bad
A little off key, she got the keys
Melodic refrains, we are so glad
The choir is humming as bees
III.
It is not the best list process
A seed turns war between want and need
Escalates to what I want to frame
versus what I want to unframe
What I want to remember
versus what I want to forget
On the left side, a grocery list
and a travel wishlist
On the right side, a what-not-to-do list
and a where-not-to-go list
I find myself in a pickle
So, I tie myself to the moon
And rocket launch the first one:
journaling of my day & dreams
