A Rattling Rhyme

Life’s moving too fast
house is trashed
Football, cheerleading, band 
carpooling all over the land 
From here to there and everywhere 
look at the roots in my hair
Never get it curled
seems like it’s all a blur
Guess what I overheard 
doesn’t matter anyway
I’m in a rush today
Gotta fill the car
tonight’s  “Dancing with the Stars”
He’s at the bar 
making extra dough
season’s here you know
Did I flip the clothes
Who knows
Need my rainbow and pot of gold 
Is that how your story goes?

Yes, Rob, accurate. Well said, except God sent COVID19 oandemic to force us to slow down (or SHUT DOWN, not shut UP)
