So Tired
If I climbed the Himalayas,
Ran a marathon or more,
I’d be so exhausted I could not
Stand upright on the floor.
If I hiked into the desert
Or worked shifts around the clock,
I’d be thoroughly depleted,
All my synapses in shock.
All I did was spend the weekend
With my grandkids, six and eight,
Which I loved, but I’m so tired,
I’m no longer seeing straight.
