Where the humdrum ends
Where the humdrum ends A morning waits when roosters crow in vain, and stunned eyes are awed by the rising sun. When nostrils savor the dewy terrain, as ears tune in to magpies’ chirping fun. Soon a dawn will bloom and change the asphalt To hordes of marigolds across lush leas, where squirrels scramble and leporids vault, while laughter echoes under maple trees. There...

At Home With Humdrum of Life
What if much of life's lost to humdrum world? To waste get withered when simplest of joys, Nature's rare scene when finds none of your voice, Innocent, pure pleasures pass by unfurled— Beauty of dawns, dusks, daises decked in dew, Hills and dales crying for our company, A gentle cool breeze gets when none her...

Premium Member Random Thoughts On the Humdrum
I have wondered about mundane things Would they have become spectacular, Noteworthy, perchance, balls of strings If given purpose, a splendid piacular? Not everything is special and/or pristine. Actually, most things are commonplace Not everything is a finely-tuned machine Like the works behind the watch’s face. So much of life, I think, is run-of-the-mill Which accounts for same ‘ol, same ‘ol. I am inclined to...

This merciless break of Man's loose authority. The individuals who are fearful of their own mortality. A few fields generate a plentiful supply. Field rabbits live for a brief time and then die. Specific work makes a huge rich zone. However, the depth of the covert harm has grown. Work could be just around as...

Are you one of those people that sees the things that I see? A cheap laugh for no reason, pathetic point scoring constantly. Are you someone who ‘does’ or someone who ‘does not’? Why is it that the ones who seem to do nothing always rise to the top? The ‘work life balance’ and all other corporate lies!...

Humdrum Encounters of Aging
Humdrum encounters of aging: I walk clouds in a vision of epiphany glaring cavillingly at a world beneath me peeling back scabs of failure a negative spiralling albatross; a wider perspective of clarity confronts “life’s too short for this crap ”...

Humdrum
Reading, eating, watching, writing – Such is life, not too exciting. Cleaning, texting, sewing, walking, FaceTime phone calls or just talking. Hearing, seeing, tasting, smelling – Nothing lately’s so compelling. Solving crosswords and debating How much longer we’ll be waiting. Writing, watching, eating, reading – All the basics that I’m needing. Walking, sewing, texting, cleaning – Man, I’m sick of quarantining!...
