What shall I do?
One of the biggest decisions,
Biggest decisions of my life
Needs to be made!
But what do I do?
Croquet has taken over,
Taken over my life,
But I need to make a choice,
As the competition is near.
That competition that happens,
That happens every year,
Where the Six Nations battle it out,
Battle around an oval ball.
Every match I have watched,
And before that,
The Five Nations.
But they clash,
Clash on a Saturday afternoon.
Croquet or Rugby?
Rugby or Croquet?
What shall I do?
Shall I record the croquet
And play the rugby?
That is daft!
So I shall have to play the croquet
And record the rugby,
But woe betide
If anybody,
Even you!!
Tell me the result
Before I have seen my recording.

Oh lol, a fine write Gold.
Thanks Orchi.
Angela here - Just off to Work - first Clinic 10am ! Thanks for sharing - Love SQ they have vitalised me for the Morning ! DOWN DOWN DEEPER & DOWN ~ AGAIN ~ AGAIN ~ DEEPER & DOWN is a good lyric to masage to ! I might ask ALEXA to play it while I have my First Client (A Rugby Player !) on the Table (visulise it !).
Your poem does hilite a 21st C dilemma which our GParents never had - How to be in two places @ once ! In your mind CROQUET (a sign of Old Age ?) & RUGBY are both sacred ! However your dilemma is solved by the Space Time continuum ! Einstein tells me that *It vould be impossible to be videoing ze Croquet (in real time) while simultaneously vatching ze Rugby* So you have no option ! Speil ze Croquet und vatch ze Rugby auf TV - OK.
However ACHTUNG ! Ich habe deiner MOBILENOMMER ! If you dont add a comment to *FIVE SENSES* Ich vill du gefone immediatzung after ZE MATCH ~ OK !
Blessings & Peace to You & Yours
Love ANGELA 🧡🤍💙🧡🤍💙
Whenever I hear Status Quo a smile comes to my face.

Decisions decisions - - and the potatoe wins.
That flaming potato always gets in the way.
You made the wise choice by playing your croquet and watching other games later my friend.
Wisdom does come to me occasionally Fay.
