virtue void shimmer grove tonal burgundy
sweep hurry foot kingfisher nintendo bridge
sam was always in a hurry
to sweep the kitchen
and get the washing up done quickly
it made him feel virtuous
he preferred to play with the kids
colouring in a kingfisher drawing
in shimmering tones of burgundy
or playing hopscotch in the orange grove
mastering nintendo games or learning bridge
he liked hopscotch
hopping on one foot
it filled a void in his psyche
a latent desire to be captain hook
the wooden legged pirate from peter pan
just a big kid really
Sam sounds like a pretty cool guy!
ReplyDeleteI share his feeling that playing is much more fun than doing chores.
Inside every man is the child he was when he was happy, trying to get out!
ReplyDeleteI've rushed through my chores to join my kids in playing video games too.
ReplyDeleteHooray for Sam, indulging his inner child and delighting the actual children in his life.
ReplyDeleteSpending far more time on fun is always recommended- I never linger over
ReplyDeletechores - rush around and get them done as fast as I can.
It sounds like Sam is enjoying like with childlike wonder
