Meetings Poems

Premium Membercircles and catcalls

I’m standing in the common room, turning in circles. I’ve so many things to do, all at once, I can’t figure out which way to jump. A time management problem, I suppose, maybe I should have taken that 1 credit
‘project management’ class I sloughed off. We live and we learn.

Leong was sitting, leg crossed on

Meetings - Minichu Format

Eyes closing, mind aflame.
Slipping out of darkness I saw you in the light.
Here again.

Met an old friend.
Rebuild, mend an old friendship right.
Wake. End.

Goodbye.
I’ll patch our plight.
Try.

Eyes closing, mind aflame.
Rebuild, mend an old friendship right.
Try.

Premium MemberChance Meetings

I'd marry you tomorrow 
If I could, my dear
The only reason not today is 'cause 
Today's already here

Twenty four short hours
Is more than time enough
To put it all together
The small details and such

I'd buy two airline tickets
To somewhere far away
Care not for the timeline
Just plan a lengthy stay

We'll lodge romantic style
In quaint, idyllic suites
At placid,

Moments before the meetings
always so full of significance,
 aeon after mismatches
filled with bitter memoirs...

It's December now, the weather's turning 
But in my heart a flame is burning 
Keeping me as warm as toast
Inside it lives, it does not boast 
The one who warms my inner soul 
Is one who sings and makes me whole
The snow may fly but care not I
I'm snuggled in her lullaby

Premium MemberPeople Who Make Meetings Last

I am intolerant of people who make a meeting last two extra hours.
Asking inane questions that pertain to only them.
And of the leaders of the meeting who allow them to take over.
Commandeering the rest of us.
Some think I am rude when I leave at the scheduled time.
Half of the other participants follow me out.

Premium MemberBack To School

I sit behind the computer
scripting the daily lesson plan, 
while hoping there’s no intruder,
of them I’m not an eager fan.

A guest speaker comes to impart
something in boring monotone.
I hope he imparts something smart
or I’ll be reading on my phone.

A meeting scheduled noon today
is for, I’m not sure what or why!
The dull message makes my mind

Late Afternoon Meetings

Late afternoon,
            when sun starts
             frowning...

Online Meeting

Online meeting

They are easy and convenient, some say,
They are cumbersome, I say,

The struggle to get up and be on time: still there,
The struggle to look good and professional: yes, it’s there,
The worst is to sound serious and engaged.
When the family is tip toeing around flashing wry smiles.
Each second is an hour!

On video, I become conscious

Zoom Crush, Or the Blatant Staring Allowed In Virtual Meetings

Your face is tiny on my screen,
one square among the twenty-two - 
but rising out of my laptop, 
somehow you fill the entire room. 

The professor talks away but 
I scarcely listen, for meanwhile,
I can spend the whole meeting with
my eyes fixed on your smile.

Premium MemberRevival Meetings

Blazing love divine ceaselessly prevails
passionately quenching hate's wrathful heat
since the Saviour’s ardent care never fails
wafting serenely triumph-scent so sweet.

Assuring warm presence seals God’s embrace
His glowing fellowship exudes sweet bliss
kindling embers of fervent worship grace
midst spiritual greetings of Brod and Sis.

Sublime compassion does ignite our soul
keeping us blest while to Christ we draw nigh
midst New Year

Premium MemberWeekly Faculty Meeting Yum

Many are gabbing, like magpies on steroids.  
As if we are getting away with something.
Our big chance to speak to adults, and we are taking it. 
Teachers at a faculty meeting.
I distance myself in proximity and mindset. 
This is a weekly meeting. I can jump
onboard next week as well as today, and catch up
