Yes, the rocky poem days continue. However, my goal all along has been to just get into a writing habit. At 54 days I guess I'm getting there. Hopefully this will at least make a few people smile or shout loud "Amens" from afar.
Pinterest is quite addictive.
I could hang out there all day.
Looking at pictures shared by friends,
Pinning a better way.
I can find a link to show me:
How to make a tasty cake,
The recipe for a side dish,
Or the way to grill a steak.
I can find a pinned description,
To help me remodel a room.
The perfect accents to display,
Or the way to cut flowers in bloom.
I can learn to organize a closet,
Or to clean a space in need.
I can find the secret to scouring a pan,
Or the secret to ending the weeds.
If I need a special trick,
To teach students how to add,
Or am looking for a poem,
The ideas aren't really half bad.
Finding all these delights,
Is quite an inspiration.
But really getting things done,
Takes effort and perspiration.

I say, "Amen!" I could get lost in that world . . .
ReplyDeleteCongrats on your writing for 54 days! However, today I feel like writing is like dieting. It's so hard to stay on track, to build that stamina, and create the habit - yet, it's so easy to fall back into old ways! I can't believe I haven't written since last Tuesday and now I'm sitting, wondering, waiting for an idea to come to me. Keep it up!
Love it!!
ReplyDeleteI have an account, but just can't seem to get back to it. It is appealing & once I'm there, I look & look-just as your poem says, Cathy. Neat to write about it. You should post the poem on one of your boards!
ReplyDeleteStill holding out...
