THURSDAY'S ENIGMA ? An Acrostic Sonnet

BRIAN & ANGELA

 

 

THURSDAY ~ INSIGNIFICANT DAY

HOPELESS ~ no songs about Thursday

UNSUNG !  Mondays we moan about ......

RETURN to WORK ~ Tuesdays always

SOME CRISIS !  Wednesday midweek calm

DAYS ~ all different ~ Friday PAY DAY !

AND ~ Saturday & Sunday ~ FREEDOM

YES !  THURSDAY ? Still an Enigma

SO AVOID the Thursday ~ BLACK HOLE !

 

ENIGMA ~ unknown quantity

NOBODY understands THURSDAY !

I NEVER have any meetings

GO anywhere important ?  NO !

MONDAYS fresh ~ get UP and GO 

ALL DAY THURSDAY ~ check my accounts !

 

Thanks for visiting ~ comments welcome ~ BRIAN XOX

 

What day of the week d'you find the most depressing ?

Or are they all depressing ~ it depends on your JOB !

Please smile Tomorrow is always FRIDAY !

If you are happily retired ~ please spare a prayer for

The Workers ~ especially on a THURSDAY ~ AMEN !

 

This POEM is presented as a Blank Verse 8 6 Sonnet.

Every line in in Iambic Tetrameter 8 syllables per line

This gives FLOW to compensate for the lack of rhyme

It is also an ACROSTIC ~ OK ~ Love BRIAN XOXOX

        Every day is a Saturday or Sunday to me as I retired five and a half years ago. Good write Brian.

          Well done ANDY ~ such are the stresses an strains of Modern Employment that many never make retirement or if they do soon succumb ! 5.5 years of freedom from the "Trivial round the common task ........ !". well done. I know your Lady Wife has ill-health but now you have the time to devote to her ~ AMEN I have to wait until 2053 (70) by which time things will be very different !. Pleased you enjoyed it ~ BRIAN

          Good write Brian.
          Yep, Thursday today - 'all day'! or 'What's left of it' we say, as the day goes on.
          Yep, 24 hours in it as usual, same as any other day has.
          End of 'Today's Useless Information' from me. I dunno what day it is. Any day will do for my useless info! lol.

          • BRIAN & ANGELA

            Thanks STEVE ~ others have indicated that for the increasing numbers of "THE RETIRED" every day of the week is IDENTICAL including even Saturdays & Sundays ! Many people find THURSDAYS strange which is why there are always Elections on Thursdays ~ A day both of DECISION and also INDECISION ! There is also the question of THOR's MAGIC HAMMER ~ The plot thickens ! Thanks for your interest ~ BROTHER BRIAN ~ due to retire in 2053 (70 !)

            Thursday - and here's me decorating one of the bedrooms with the house in a tip from the overflow of furniture - Most Thursday okay for me but this Thursday: YUCK. Great write Brian.

            Your poem made me think about which day I like best. Probably Monday, that's the day you can look forward to the next weekend the longest!
