Wake Up, Go To Bed, Repeat 

AnthonyLeave a comment

Wake up now 

Day begin

Lots to do

Planners win.

–

So get dressed

Put on clothes

Brush your hair

Blow your nose.

–

Socks are on

Shoes as well

Grab your coat

Feeling swell.

–

Grab your keys 

Lock the door

Off to work

Then the store.

–

Office bound 

Traffic bad

Journey slow

Drives you mad.

–

Music plays 

Happy songs

Always rights

Commute wrongs.

–

Then arrive

Plenty work

Take my lunch

A nice perk.

–

Finish work

Homeward bound

Once again 

Traffic found.

–

Music plays

Once again

Much akin

An old friend.

–

Later home

Dinner ate

Clean the pans

Wash the plates.

–

Then relax

Read a book

Eyes heavy

Day’s toll took.

–

Back to bed

No sorrow

All redone 

For tomorrow…

Wild Wednesdays 

Anthony6 Comments

The day begins

As the sun rises brightly

Start your day.

–

Morning meetings galore

Then you cook yourself lunch

Which is breakfast.

–

Lots of writing

A myriad of afternoon meetings

Nearly dinner time.

–

Homemade warm dinner

Two, five cheese toasted quesadillas

Then clean up.

–

Next get ready 

And go to game night

At my friend’s.

–

Then head home

Rest, and prepare for tomorrow

The day ends…

All Work and No Play…

Anthony6 Comments

People work themselves to death

Never ending daily grind

Tasking each and everything

Lest falling far behind in a major bind.

–

Starts at fifteen or sixteen

In their youth, little regard

Seeking out the greatest time

Not quite the effort for working very hard.

–

Time flies and the years rush by

Laziness will not abide

Learn the value of money

Then accomplishments, the wealth of healthy pride.

–

Scales now tipped another way

Work becomes out everything

As we mature we work hard

Security and prosperity, now king.

–

Those two extremes in our lives

Balance needed that’s the truth

Work and play must coexist

As my life and lessons, are the living proof…

Getting Through Thursday

Anthony11 Comments

Can’t keep my eyes open

I’m in dire need of a nap

Up early, and I’m still coping.

–

I feel slow and thick like tree’s sap

Only caffeine can get me through

Feeling dried out like a pen without cap.

–

A latte or Monster Energy will do

Wake up juice is needed now

After consuming this magic brew.

–

I feel light and airy in my brow 

Really getting my second wind

Moving with determination and how

–

My tiredness earlier doth rescind

Meetings and projects, so much to get done

As I finished them all, I happily grinned.

–

Knocking out task lists is always fun

Satisfaction, at the end of my day 

Now once and for all, my work is done

I’m not a Jack, dull, boy, it’s time for play…

Work and Play

Anthony2 Comments

Life is hard 

So they say

Despite work

All, love play.

–

Pay your dues 

Nine to five

Work quite hard

To survive.

–

Then punch out

Job well done

Tasks complete 

Now for fun.

–

On the town 

Walk with friends

Hope the fun

Never ends…
