Maybe There's Something To This Pokemon Go Thing

Sometimes I just
want to sit
and write a poem.

Sometimes I just
want to stand
and recite a poem.

Sometimes I just
want to walk
around the house
picking up dust and lint
and maybe writing a poem.

Sometimes I just
think writing a poem
is the most wasteful pasttime ever
and I should just join the crowd
hunting Pokemons 
right outside my front door.

My two boys went out last night hunting for Pokémon. There is a 4 year difference in ages and it is great that they are able to bond over something.

Yes, and it's a good way to get them out of doors - I get that! Thanks for your comments! :-)
