Be Reason Able

WriteBeLight

Like the seasons,

Each three months long.

You have your reasons,

Some just because.

 

One might have,

A special date.

There’s a reason,

To lose some weight.

 

Feeling so grumpy,

Most all the time.

Maybe the reason,

Need sleep to feel fine.

 

Reached that point,

Both can’t agree.

Just be reasonable,

Agree to disagree.

 

Tired of that lazy,

Freeloading louse.

Tell them your reasons,

Get them out of the house.

 

Wish that pesky caller,

Would leave you alone?

Good reason to delete them,

From your phone.

 

Feeling uneducated,

And, like a fool?

A very good reason,

Go back to school.

 

Squinting a lot,

Headaches too?

See the eye doctor,

Maybe glasses, new.

 

Excellent weather,

Feeling inside, surly?

Go play hooky.

Leave work early.

 

All have our reasons,

A little or many.

Change or remain the same.

Can you think of any?

          My favorite was elephants were crossing the road. In days of the circus the elephants would often walk from one small town to another, tying up traffic. That is reason able. Enjoyed.
