LIFE ON THE ROAD

Morning starts at 4 a.m.
Stumbling, mumbling to the sink
Brush the teeth, rinse the face
Maybe time to sit and think

Coffee and the PC calling
Down the stairs almost falling
A cup of jo, say hello to friends too few
Then to task, to write at last
Inspirations from the night just past

Come 6 a.m. a morning call
Hello wife, did you sleep at all?
Exchange “Miss You’s” and “Love You’s” too
Discuss the day ahead

Then back to work so much to do
At least till 7 maybe just one more brew
Exercise, shower, shave
Off to work, start the day

Explore, discover, create and more
Too often meetings and Admin chores
Work through lunch till 6 p.m.
Then back to home I go again

TV news, a glass of wine
TV dinners, what a find
A final call to say good night
So goes my day, turn out the light.

Wow! So many days filled with the "same old routine".."I" can't handle routine! I can't help but smile though, I love the part, "Then to task, to write at last
Inspirations from the night just past" !

Makes me happy that even though, no matter how hard life "tries" to pull us into a heartless robots, we still aspire to follow our dreams and let live our hearts!
such beautiful poetry..

She Intrigues Me, Revelations Of Love by Jon Willey

If you tend to believe romantic, passionate, masculine poetry is a thing of past eras, read "She Intrigues Me," and be swept away in the beautiful craft of a contemporary poet of love.
