The Beauty of Night!

The day is ending.

Pink sky casts beauty and peace.

My soul finds its rest.

Downsizing is Good for the Heart!

I kept brooding over cleaning the bigger house,

So we looked for something with less upkeep.

We found a nice little cottage on a metalled road,

And now we’re not so tired when we go to sleep.

Written for the Three Things Challenge from Pensitivity 101. The prompts are metal, upkeep, and brood. I used the British definition of a paved road. That’s why I love completing these prompts:…

I Have Heard Them All!

There is no excuse that I haven’t heard,

As the reason for not getting work done.

Even the more timid will look in your eyes,

Thinking they’ve pulled the wool over you.

But, after twenty years of college teaching,

There just isn’t any excuse that is new.

Life’s Little Compromises!

I always hated the thought of eating healthy.

I’d rather some chocolate than a red juicy apple.

But the man who proposed loved grains and oats,

And now we are on our way to the wedding chapel.

Written for Three Things Challenge #223 from Pensitivity 101. The prompts are grains, oats, and chapel. I thought a little humor would be good.
