So What It's Only Dirt
~*~
So much to do
just like the busy bee
or a bird building a nest
no time for rest
think I'll go jump in a lake
take a swim
think about nothing
for a while
learn a new style
create memories of sunshine at the zoo
smile as the dogs dig a hole
so what
it's only dirt

The dip in cool water sounds very relaxing to me, and there truly is no cure for the dog. Funny how we become so "busy" and nearly miss the life around us.

Do it! do it! As for me, I do it too much. I'm going to delay my going on vacation one day to take care of some of the dirt and tall grass around here. Ugh, I hate the first mow because it marks 6 mos. of having to get out the mower...I dislike that part more than the mowing, weird, eh. You have a delightful 'feet-up' time, BR!

Blooming Rose:

I liked this poem. It was cute and fresh. Liked how you compared your busy life to that of a bird or a bee. Also how its nice to relax and be lazy when needs be. Sometimes it would be nice to be a dog and just dig holes all day.

Take care.
