guitar lessons
are now on wednesday
instead of tuesday
i made the orthodontist
appointment for tuesday
instead of wednesday
a book is in at the library
ready for pick-up
i need to mail a bill
and scrape paint
then repaint on the house
and the wood needs to be stacked
and cj needs driving hours
and i am to pick-up someone
at the airport this morning
oh
hazy
crazy
lazy days of summer
where did you go?

    notes
    bills
    payments
    do dads
    pencils
    pens and paper
    school supplies
    schedule my drives
    over the hills of ohio
    pictures of the morning skies

    btw love your summer end poem and the gorgeous collage of flowers
    i have decided to try my hand in creating one poem a week on my blog
    i wonder how this good intention will turn out!;>)

    table strewn with my last hurrah
    organization of the bill drawer
    before school
    wreaks havoc
    to my good intentions

    so how did i miss
    payment of one
    in my organizing
    i mislaid a file

    good intentions
    sometimes. . .
    not so good

    leaving it clear blue
    leaving me without a clue
    head in the air
    doing what i have done
    doing what it is i do
    with a hazy
    glaze of where i was
    just because
    there is no shadow
    at noon

    We all have to do
    To be done
    Turning us undone
    As the clouds gather
    And pass us
    In the August sky
