Finding Order In Ordinary

I Better not blow away the ordinary Often ordinary turns extraordinary How, you may query I'll answer, if u tarry II There is order in the ordinary In the hasty humdrum! It's extraordinary Humdrum, ordinal, cardinal (numbers?) Answers, answers, before s/he slumbers III Humdrum? Can't just pass concepts by My drum won't hum, I do (Yes, I try) If drums do drum, where's the humdrum? Hey stop! Read slowly. Who are U running from

Smile ... Now & then, Dr Seuss's "happy dappy" influence takes over.

This is thoughtful poetry, Anil. From a contemporary perspective, I regularly recognize trends and reasons; therefore, it is possible the problem isn't repetition, but instead our unwillingness to evolve into novel ideas that explore the meadow.

Steady paces...a cycle to plan in and for...even in so called chaos, I often find patterns and reasons according to new perspective~so, perhaps it is not repetition that is the humdrum or obstacle, but our refusing to grow into new thought that digs deeper the gully, not willing to see ourselves more in control and less reactive? Who knows? As usual, you always get me thinking Anil. Thank you.

Thank u so kindly. Some poems come out of digestion, or more quickly, from mastication. God enjoys ordinary moments too
