Unfocused

Is it just me or A.D.D.
Can’t stay on top of things

When the sermon gets long
I mentally write a poem

I must fight to stay focused
Least the devil do hocus pocus

I can very much relate. Just this morning in church, this happened. I do think God understands when inspiration hits! Nice poem!

So true; occasionally, we are distracted. Can't be helped.
