As I organise myself for bed,
The tobacco pouch spills over the covers,
Is this a sign as I cussed the event,
It will follow me to rest like few others?
Though I then smile with a certain indifference,
That if not for my, at times, troubled smoke,
And my lack of resistance,
It would just be a bit more of a joke.
And as the bits and pieces of my existence,
Continue to dop away, then picked up and dusted down,
I shall always take the chance,
Of letting go and spreading around.
Yet not a great deal do I have to show,
Nor in any order or selection,
Does my fortune good or bad grow,
But remains the chaotic perfection.
But perhaps for one still day,
When all assembled well,
And I would glide and soar all the way,
From dawn to the evening bell,
It would endow a smile upon my heart,
And be a day to recall,
As I fumbled and stumbled in to start,
A return to my many muddled world.
Longtemps
Fittle a’ litttle lo’,
Into the red we go.
To find an ‘squisite sense.
That get’s us past the fence.

And how silly we are to think that any day could be perfect. As the old Irish blessing is caste upon us by none other than Mr. Spock???? LOL "May your day be free of incident.".... We do hope that such profound wisdom definitely sheds its blessings upon us as we rise to meet the day. My first wish of the morning is to get to the bathroom & the coffee pot before I trip over a cat.but, the chances of that happening are 1,173,389.9239 to one, Captain.... tee hee. Amy
Gentle is the night♥
Simply marvelous expression!
Living your life how you see fit is most important! Chaos doesn't have to be a bad thing :) I can relate to the sentiment in this piece :) My life is anything but ordinary :) But, it is just the way that I like it :)
In the little big heaven paradise, I might understand that....and your heavy and bright brain, It is amazing !!Politicians usually are restricted skilled people (often not even high school, for me stupid, show off ), and they look like champions , people like you, deserve to govern a new world, and everybody happy..Bro
