What Happened to Yesterday?

Goldfinch60



So what happened,

What happened to yesterday!

Up at normal time,

Wrote some poetry,

Read some poetry.

Had breakfast and cup of tea,

Then went for my walk

Knowing that when I returned

I would go to the supermarket,

Just to buy a few supplies.

Got home from walk

And the window cleaner was there.

He cleaned the windows,

I made his coffee,

As I do every time.

By that time the time was moving on,

Needed to do the shopping.

Shopping done.

I was then expected at the croquet club

To aid in keeping the lawn tidy.

Spent some time there,

Even knocked a couple of balls around

Just to see all was well.

Came back too late for lunch

So prepared dinner.

Spoke to a friend over the web.

And there it was,

Or wasn’t?

The time had gone,

So I went to bed!

What happened to yesterday!

    Yes, for example, with shopping taking longer with queues these days, the time can go quickly when we're enjoying ourselves - if we enjoy shopping?!
    Did time go quickly in 1066? Wish I hadn't turned up. lol.

    BRIAN HERE - Good Thursday Uncle ANDY thanks for sharing a Beautiful VIDEO ! It highlighted each section of the Orchestra. When I was a CHILD (1980s) my Dad (Classical Pianist) used to take us to enjoy the Royal Liverpool Philharmonic Orchestra ! I marvelled how such a diverse arrangement of Instruments could be so so harmonius. I understand it now (having studied acoustics) but visually & aurally it still fills me with awe. I ask Alexa to play *Nutcracker by The RLPO* close my eyes and visually it all floods back inio my sub-conscious ~ AMEN !

    YESTERDAY ? O I remember Yesterday ?
    Another day of Happy House Husbanding
    Washing - Ironing - Cooking - Cleaning
    Gardening - Thank GOD for the good weather
    Love LOCKDOWN but miss the LABORATORY
    Cant wait for 2021 - parhaps NORMALITY ?

    Blessings & Peace to YOU & YOURS
    Love Brian & Angela ๐Ÿงก๐Ÿค๐Ÿ’™๐Ÿค๐Ÿงก

  • dusk arising

    Yesterday is gone leaving what it will. Whilst we are in yesterdays shadow there is joy in knowing the sunlight is but a few steps away.

  • myself and me

    To me, you had a very organized day that is healthy and fun.

      True but it just seemed to rush by.

      No doubt you made a memory or two Andy as yesterday rushed its way forward. Wishing you a pleasant tomorrow.

        Thank you Fay, as you know memories are important.
