Butterfly Mind.

Goldfinch60



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

    • dusk arising

      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..

            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.

            • Goldfinch60

              Thank you Rozina, ys hopefully all will be done in time.
