Joys of My Lazy Day

It's a joy to let go.
To stop being perfect, such agony.
More glory,  in just being me.
To let it be OK, to not be top banana.
There's no Oscar win~ and then...
Simply end up looking old and worse..
Than Quasimodo's sister, Susanna!
Serenity has magic cosmetics of its own.
Peace in your heart, no need to be bold.
Loving others, more than yourself.
Give up trying to impress,comment more!
Quit looking for praise.
These contents  of my lazy day.

My dear friend, as we write we should remember that in the act of giving is the gift. Poetry is the vehicle, heart, soul and mind the creator. Your gifts do so uplift many of us! A fav.. God bless..

Robeet, so glad you brought up the uplifting part. But honestly, it's a dead end. Who cares? You and Tom see it~ the galloping herd prefers hearing about topics mundane. My fault for assuming otherwise. Or are .lost in forms? I don't know how to reach people anymore. I feel naked with my soul on paper. Quips, Jokes, skimming reality seem to work best. Will be mailing you. Have a blow out of a day...love and respect, PR xx

We can control our days, we don't let them control us. Things we can't control we should ignore. Tom
