A TYPICAL DAY FLIES AWAY
By bridget
I open my eyes and reach for my laptop
Ready to read, then write non stop
My brown eyes scan the latest news
It's all grief and gives me the blues
I shake my head
And get out of bed
Time for a cup of strong tea
My favourite brand is "Tetley"
So British! It reminds me of my youth which I spent overseas
I'd dash to get to college and study all day
I remember looking out of a large window at a sky that was forever grey
Depressing! I could never have lived over there
Not when I come from here
Our bright blue skies are easy on the eye
Good for the spirit, makes you wish you can fly
Oh, these blasted aching knees
I'd rather be outdoors enjoying the cool breeze
But I'm stuck indoors
Not doing many chores
How could I after two bad falls?
I keep myself busy and write
Before I know it, it's night
