At the end of the day,
after homework, dinner and baths;
the battle begins; a hopeless dance.
Be productive in relative peace, quiet?
Drop everything , grab the neglected book ?
Run to undo the days dietary mistakes?
Or succumb to the inviting softness
of the freshly made, warm bed...
In hopes of a productive tomorrow
when I can read or run;
not surrender too quickly or soundly
as the white sheets beckon me tonight.
I surrender to the pillows even when the bed is rumpled and unmade--a warm, fresh bed would be too inviting to pass up! For all that other stuff, there's always tomorrow... :)
ReplyDeleteThat bed is gonna win.
ReplyDeleteI hear you! I've been doing The Artist's Way recently and have been trying to stay super consistent in writing daily (mostly handwriting, not on my blog), but there are days I just want to stay in bed instead - not get up at 5am to sneak in writing time before everything else. Oh yes!
ReplyDeleteStory of my life! AND reason why, no matter WHAT I say and write, I keep neglecting my little blog...
ReplyDeleteHave a great time (perhaps some in bed? ;) ) in Napa....we will definitely compare stories upon our returns! Bonjour!
Bed wins out when writing doesn't!
