Poetic Blooming Poetic Exercise


Remind Me

A long walk, a hike, snow-shoeing, climbing
makes me feel alive. Someone one remind me
that when I’m indoors with chores or rhyming
I need some time outdoors to be happy.

There are things  I want, need or like to do.
Most days my to-do list’s filled end to end.
I aim to get things done all the way through.
There’s so many projects and tasks to tend.

While I’m inside a cool wind is blowing,
the sun is shining, the mountain calling,
bikes to be riding, boats to be rowing.
All of these, my projects are forestalling.

Someone remind me, in order to thrive,
to drop what I’m doing and play outside.
