Harried Hurry

Slipping  and sliding along
Downhill days of later life
Rushing headlong madly
With nought  to do I think of you
Keeping busy haphazardly sadly 
Frantic antics slowed reactions
Thoughts awry with flustered bluster
Like swarm of bees in rumble cluster 
Piling days of constant wrath
In aggregating  piles
Neath slews of good intentions
And aggravating smiles
Stocks and stacks of special moments
Crammed in black holes of ire
Frustrations  out in flashing torments
Of all consuming fire
Swimming through this world of red
I stumble up the stair to bed
To dream again of us
