On Overload Poem by Susan Lacovara

On Overload

Rating: 5.0


Head stuffed like a russet potato
Plans made and where did today go
Letters addressed, postage affixed
Shopping list logged, coupons were clipped

Cat fed and brushed dog walked and watered
Both, now are sleeping in my quarters
Alarm prepared for morning's meet
Garbage pails out to the street

Newspapers read and will recycle
My prayers to God, faithful disciple
Bookmarked my latest library selection
Close my eyes to sleep in today's reflection

Tomorrow.... the basket for forgotten dreams and misplaced to-dos... I love tomorrow...
