Dressed for the Holidays

Ring ...ring
Am I home to answer that
"Good morning"
I hear myself say
Today?
hesitantly, I think aloud
of lists and things to do
simple things like groceries
a nap would be delightful too
Ring...ring
Am I here to answer that
"Yes"
I will come
No, no it's alright
I was merely thinking out loud
I'll be there
Place your anxiousness aside
I'll be there

Pauline -- friends are always more important than lists. I hope your Christmas was a happy one.

Great to see you writing! Sometimes we do feel like we are wishbone children; never enough time... but it all balances out. Hugs!

quilldancer, friends are always more important. I am tired, it has been an exceptionally busy month between holiday preparations and work and friends and family. I feeel a bit like Gumbie. Remember that stretchable cartoon character?
Hope things settle down soon.

Katie, see the above note...I am waiting for it to balance out!!! Thanks for visiting.

Happy New Year to all!
