Time is subjective, deceptive

it seems to stretch, then stumble,

twist and tumble

ticking away tasks left undone

taking away moments meant for fun

but there’s time enough

for a mini rhyme

I think, when I get a day off work,

I’ll do this and make that

and see things I don’t have time to see

I’ll pen rhymes and paint pictures …

But it figures that my day off

involves coughing and congestion,

cold sweats and indigestion.

But not all was lost.

A BBC Pride and Prejudice marathon,

chased by a shot of Bride and Prejudice

were duly savored.

I O.D.ed on Bollywood-flavored CVS Tussin

and Jane Austen,

gulped gallons of Airborne.

And it’s back to work in the mornin’

i wanted to take the time

to thank you for this rhyme

yes, it’s all because of you

who pushed me to be true

to my inner artist child

who needs to run wild

and let ideas free flow

around and over the downer NO

I’d like to thank you for urging me to do

and write and craft and create

what’s in my muddled, dreaming state

of mind, the kind of weird

and wondrous, feared

and frivolous stuff that sets me free!
