My Challenge

  Playing solitaire to while the time away
    I found that I was sleeping later, every single day

  I tried to think of a new pastime
    to challenge myself some more

  So, first I became a sex fiend
    until in the act I began to snore

  Next I took up bungie-jumping
    but I found it rather a bore

  One last attempt – a crossword puzzle
    ‘til for ‘very sick,’ I wrote wuz’ll...    

  So back I went to solitaire, my old reliable friend
    and that is how challenging myself ~
                 brought this poem and me to an end

Freshening our actions…perhaps serving…but still there are days when we must entertain ourselves…Puzzling today…
