So much to do so little time
Sitting talking to myself in rhyme
Reason I can't understand the meaning
How thing's progress and where its leading
Answering the questions not making sense
Living in a world where it's all pretence
Fantasy is easy till reality knocks
Come on you stand up pull up your socks
Listen to your mother, what would she have said
Shake of these thoughts and get out of bed
The day is bright and frosty I know
And the weatherman says it may just snow
But round the corner the daffodils peak
Sun from the clouds is beginning to streak
So many dreams I have left to fulfill
Mountains to climb may be just a hill
Money to make money to spend
People to meet just round the bend
Knowledge to seek so much to learn
Showing meaningful lessons of concern
But the beds so warm want to stay curled
Up under the covers not face the world
Telephone rings please go away
I'm not talking to anyone today
Please leave me alone don't need you to care
No coffee or tea break having to share
Oh no there's that reality again
Tapping at my frazzled brain
Post lands heavily on the mat
See I can't even forget about that
My eyelids are falling closing so tight
Feels to me like the middle of the night
Must have been all that wine I drank
Or was it the vodka and orange I sank
My head is pounding clock ticking so loud
All because I wanted to part of the crowd
But today I so want to be in my solitude
I really don't mean to sound so rude
Know I should get up and go to work
And face the demons that in there lurk
The shower beckons really should get in it
Oh I will but give me one more minute
