Poetry Wednesday: Busy.

 

   

Busy

I was busy with the housework

I was busy with the cat

I was busy in the garden

I was busy, just being busy

Can you appreciate that?

I was busy with the cooking

I was busy with some chore

I was busy with tasks menial

And all that they implore

I was busy in my life right here

And ready to explore

The ins and outs of business

I needed to know more

I was busy on the telephone

I had visitors at the door

This busy is a serious thing

When it interrupts my flow

You see I was getting so busy

My writing became so slow

Well today I penned this little verse

To catch up here and say

I will never let the Busy –ness interrupt

Sending, Hugs and Love Your Way

Milli 2008

  1. Sometimes, busy can be like prayer, we get into the moment, a place where we lose ourselves, yet find ourselves as well, because we are in the moment.

  6. Aye Matey,
    I know what Busy-ness is all about,
    Its caused many a fall out,
    With those that I had to fall in,
    Or so was the spin
    Busy-ness has cost me
    At times, my sanity.
    Right now, I am so busy
    Thinking about the busy-ness
    That instead of more, I get done less.

    Perfect, isnt it being a Woman?
    We understand the business of busy-ness.

  11. Great little poem, Milli! And thanks for the Eagles Video - how very appropriate. It's funny how even doing nothing can be very time consuming. Being retired, Bill and I are more the: "We're busy doing nothing Working the whole day through Trying to find lots of things not to do. etc." Anyway, so glad to read your poetry - it's always so refreshing. Take good care of you! - Marcia
