Monday




monday
not my best day
weekends go too quickly
i look at the list
too many things to do
how can anyone be
this busy
there are no longer
24 hours in a day
i am the only one
who has noticed this
will visit the geese in the park
at lunch time
the swans
do not like me
they rip food from my hands
one of the cygnets has gone
they follow me to the car
must be the hair
they think im building material
for their nest

  1. Oh, Rall, I am so glad to be the first to comment on this one! It screams the well-worn tag line, "Woke up like dis."

    I love this painting, and my daughter got to see her "in person" while in Paris. She commented on how they have her displayed covered by bulletproof glass, et al, complained she was being "held hostage." So the idea of her getting her hair messed is delicious. Will send her the link.

    "The swans do not like me..." Great line! Amy
