Mind like a butterfly
Not staying long
On any one subject
Before moving on.
Mind like a butterfly?
I’ll make a short list,
Of things to be done
And must not be missed.
Mind like a butterfly!
Where is the book?
To write these thing down
I’ll just go and look.
Mind like a butterfly.
Just seen the paper
Come through the door
Will save it for later
Mind like a butterfly!
Must make the tea
Just fill the kettle
What’s this I see?
Mind like a butterfly
Here is an email
Must read it first
It may tell a tale.
Mind like a butterfly
Nothing gets done
So why am I tired
When down goes the sun

In resonance with your butterfly
Though it maybe humour but it’s reality of mine
The mind fluttering to its own tunes not willing to stop till noon
Yet no work done till afternoon
Well penned dear Andy
Can’t help that it’s similar on this side
Mind like a butterfly
A good simile you build upon
May that smile be with you all the time spilleronsheet.
Thank you
Andy
Did you speak to soon
under this rising moon
suddenly awake
with a thirst to slake
and drawing near
to fridgeload of beer
once you've started to quaff
one is never enough
no wonder you're tired
after all, you're re-tired
life's not hokey-cokey
you're knackered from croquet.
You know me so well d a and you know me well enough to give me my first laugh of the day for which I am most grateful. Have a good day.

Lovely writing , Andy 🙂 really like this . Sometimes we are like butterflies .. not staying still for too long , and our minds can get bored and want to move onto the next idea or thought..
Thank you Yellowrose.

Good write Gold.
Thank you Orchi.
It sounds so pretty - a butterfly mind! My mind is so unsettled at times and not much eventually gets done at the end of the day. I really like your description.
Thank you Rozina, ys hopefully all will be done in time.
I know why. It's because..... Damn it no its gone.
Great poem
Thank you SC.
