upon the day outside so
best to stay in bed
Coffee warms my throat
warm blankets enfold and beg
just give in - and rest
But, laundry calls me
chores abound: dishes, bathroom
Rise - attend to us!
Guilt swirls through my thoughts
but - I bury it and choose
to get well instead
Quote of the day: You, yourself, as much as anybody in the entire universe,
deserve your love and affection. ~Buddhist Quote
Right choice. Forget the laundry, it won't go anywhere. Restore your health.
ReplyDeleteAll those chores, and feeling poorly, and still you managed to summon up an entertaining slice...bravo!
ReplyDeleteLove the haikus, each alone, and together. They tell your story.
ReplyDeleteI hope you feel better! Haikus are such a fun choice. This was a really good slice. There will always be chores, but sometimes it's most important to take the time to get well.
ReplyDeleteRest and recover is the plan for today. Hope tomorrow brings sunshine into your world.
ReplyDeleteI had to do the same today. I spent my entire morning catching up on The Ellen Show from the week, and the rest of the day has been spent reading blog posts. Seriously - without these amazing distraction, my laundry and dishes would be done, because I don't have the will power to just rest. Best wishes to get healthy soon!
