Ten pound day Burning toast Wrinkled clothes Screaming kids Time slides Home life crammed Disaster slams Ten pounds of stuff In a five pound day Rain pours down Clothes drown Traffic jams Bike cop hams Fender bender Temper in blender Ten pounds of stuff In a five pound day Project is taffy Spilled coffee Screaming boss Memos lost Too many tasks Too many asks Ten pounds of stuff In a five pound day Lover gone Life moves on Pile of bills Meals are swills No relief Life deceives Ten pounds of stuff In a five pound day [This message has been edited by kayjay (08-30-2005 08:43 AM).] |

Mostly, my time for days like this have passed, but I know it is reality for many. I hope it brought you a chuckle. Ken Through rubble and trouble and dark of night |

kayjay, You couldn't have said this any better! I've known a few of those ten pound days myself! I guess we must be like the ant that lifts many more times its weight. Oh, I wish! Take care. I enjoyed this mucho! This one goes straight to the library... miscellanea |
