Stop,Pause Focus and

Continue that's what we

Can do, when the little

Things start to annoy

Us, for a moment in our

Day, and overshadow

the bigger ones,we try

To bury away.

 

From an heavy oak chest

Of draws that decides it

Doesn't want to move across

The thick pile carpet floor.

 

Or a washing machine that

leaks all over the floating wood

tile. causing more cleaning

up to do, than before.

 

And when we couldn't bite

Our tongues any more and

Swore, realizing the new

Neighbors had heard

From across the communal

Hall.

 

Don't let it win,what ever it

May be,but feel proud

That no matter what stood in

Our way, we didn't let it stop us

Doing anything we wanted on that

Very day.

Hi Trish. 

This is a lovely poem with some nice rhymes, and the words flow so well, too. Great inspirational message using down to earth examples of life. 

Very much enjoyed.

smileyHi Bee, I hope your well. I appreciate your lovely comments and they have made me smile. I am glad the words flow, it took hours of stoping and starting on a friends laptop and then it broke,which meant I had to dig out the original hand written one, but it's knee deep with other originals so I had to remember the poem,and lets say I was feeling like doing more than swearing by the end of he night ha ha. So I wasn't pleased with what I put up but your comments made all that worth it.

 

Glad you enjoyed it. And it started off, 'my thought of the moment' but once I started it just ended up being a poem.But I wanted to keep the important core message, but also make it a little fun to read and what most of us, if not all can relate to.

Hello there, Trish,

I could really identify with this....washing machines flooding the kitchen are a sore point with me, having slipped and fallen, and broken my arm on tiles that became like a skating rinksad.

That was a few years ago now, and the arm's all mended, thank goodnesssmiley

Very much enjoyed your poem, and its message, uplifting.

Keep writing, and inspiring, Trish.
