I need to write a poem,
Where oh where to start?
Should it be of love,
Or perhaps a tasty tart?
I know what you are thinking,
I know it in my heart.
You think I’m talking pastries,
Or perhaps she’s à la cart!
If I have words I need to say,
It’s here I will impart.
But today I fear is different,
My words are not that smart.
My mind is on vacation,
I swear it did depart!
The vacancy that it left,
Is filled by one upstart!
I pray it won’t be long,
With this counterpart.
In just a day or two,
I’ll simply hit restart!

Hit restart – it’s how we fix everything else in life, Pam. Even your apology/complaint to yourself is amusing. Thanks for keeping our days fun.

This is hysterical Pam! I think it would be grand to have a restart button. Unfortunately, I’d wear mine out on day one! Lol! This made me laugh out loud. Thank you.
Love your painting!

Thanks Ginger! I really did not have a poem for today and was panicking. This is me panicking, the painting and the words.

“Have you tried turning it off and turning it back on again?” ~Roy, IT Dept.😉I empathize. Seems I am either writing poetry in my dreams or totally blank in the daytime. It’ll return. ❤️

Sometimes night and day blur or change places. What would life be like without a little confusion?
