Missed With a Smile.

Goldfinch60



There I was all prepared,

Just waiting for the time

When the A.G.M. would start.

All was prepared by me

So I could attend this meeting,

This meeting on Zoom,

The meeting where minutes are taken,

But where hours are wasted!

Then came that ‘phone call,

I had to take it,

It was from my best friend.

So we spoke and put the world to right

For over an hour, maybe two.

Once we said our good byes

I looked at the time,

And realised that I had missed it,

Missed the meeting,

So I just sat there thinking,

Thinking what a shame,

With a big smile on my face.

      Yes, why are they called Minutes, if the waffle goes on for hours?!
      We had Meetings and sub-Meetings (sub groups). Oohh, didn't they just love their meetings. Where was the time to do the actual work?
      Did they have any meetings to plan 1066?

        The only meeting we had was the meeting of the arrow and Harold's eye when you told him to look up.

        Pleasure fills our days, we choose what We enjoy best, if joy carries us away for a minute, and we miss something else, at least It wasn’t time wasted. Smilez

          It certainly wasn't, friends are so important especially in these times.
