Making a List

It’s helpful when making a list To check back to see if you’ve missed Something you had to do Which, without that review, Might be something you’ve tried to resist. For at times, there’s so much to be done That, by crossing things off, one by one, You can feel satisfied And delighted inside You’re completing things under the gun. As for chores you’d prefer to delay, Best to get all those out of the way. Once your goals have been met You’ll breathe better, I’ll bet And the next list you’ll get to delay.
