Not Today

Morning walk before heat sets in
Nope, not today

A three page date with my journal
Nope, not today

Coffee and brunch with a friend
Nope, not today

A family jaunt downtown for something fun
Nope, not today

Hiking and ice cream afterward
Nope, not today

Shopping to update my wardrobe
Nope, not today

Friday, you win,
but I'll be back tomorrow

  1. I totally get that feeling of how you sometimes plan on doing certain things on a specific day, but when the time comes you either can’t or aren’t in the mood. I loved the use of repetition in this poem. Thank you so much for sharing!

    1. Derailed plans aren’t my favorite, but they happen. The day usually catches up to me and I have to save some tasks for later. I do try to mix it up, some of the have to do with want to do.
