Karen Jones Poet Rhyme

Mood Swing

I am in a mood today
Can not say I am mad
I just feel out of place
And no I am not sad

So I will choose to smile
On the inside where it matters
Turn this whole funk around
Avoid annoyed mad hatters

See I ate spaghetti for lunch
Someone else is hungry for sure
Why get my panties in a bunch
Cuz life can be so unsure

I prayed for a place to stay
Looks like that’s in the works
The only thing is I’m afraid
Of acting anti social like a jerk

So please forgive my sharp glance
It is not meant for you
There was this rapist man
Who taught me what I should do

Wearing my gun in a gaze
Instead of packing for real
Really works for bad days
When my attitude isn’t chill

So this mood of gray will pass
And I will finally feel relieved
We all need a good green laugh
So I’m going to watch a comedy.

Aloha! Karen Jones October 14, 2021 at 1:23 PM You are right I never thought about that. Thanks for the compliments and your support as a writer!

Victor Buhagiar October 13, 2021 at 10:05 PM you're lucky. I'm sad all the time because of the meds I take. Karen Jones October 14, 2021 at 1:11 AM Wow. You persevere nicely it seems with your wonderful poetry. I am sorry you feel sad all the time. Is it something you just live with or can you get help to change it? I don't want you to be sad my friend. Will pray for your heart and mood to be lifted.

Evelyn Judy Buehler October 13, 2021 at 9:00 PM It's nice that moods are so transient, and bad moods don't last. But if one one must have a bad mood, I prefer your way. A wonderful poem, Karen. :) Evelyn Judy Buehler October 14, 2021 at 6:38 AM So glad you didn't delete it. It was a pleasure reading. :) Karen Jones October 13, 2021 at 9:02 PM Thanks for reading. I nearly deleted it as it is too moody. lol
