Dear God It's Late

Dear God, oh why do I procrastinate The time it passes and I know it’s late So much to do and I’m in a din Is being this lazy a terrible sin Dear God, what next, should I move Maybe I need music to get in the grove Get up, get going, ideas are overflowing Not likely, it’s me, so just have another tea Dear God, I do, I want to do well With my actions now, you’d never tell Wake me up and give me a spurt I know it’s only me that I really hurt Dear God, I’m up and steadily grow Each step I take and for you I show Feeling great and I’m feeling proud See me now as I shout out loud.

The last stanza is a real pick me up! And I think you can all relate to the others in our own way, Barbara! Well done!
