Mundane

It’s rare I find the depths to plumb;
I pen the silly and the dumb.

I don’t scream much into the void
about things with which I’m annoyed.

I cannot rage about my ex
or brag about hot hookup sex,

or angst at why the planet warms
from man-induced or cyclic norms.

I mostly leave my politics
on unwatched channels, unclicked clicks.

I do reveal how I am awed
at things pertaining to my God.

About my past, I’ll share a bit
regarding rescue from the pit.

World travel logs would be pretend;
I’d rather be right ‘round the bend.

I find I have some things to say
about my grands and how they play.

And chances are indeed remote
you haven’t read about my goat.

My Missy girl and I take walks,
imagining if she could talk.

My grandkids’ cats, their simple names,
are of renown and hero fame.

Sometimes my life seems quite mundane;
I hope to keep it all the same.
