Making the effort.

narrative verse

 

Making the effort

 

My get up and go has got up and gone

 tired of waiting it’s gone on alone.

I am content to just and wait.

It’ll come back with tales to relate.

 

Of where it’s been and what it’s seen

Its only aim to turn me green

with jealousy and stimulate

my interest before too late.

 

Rouse me from my lethargy

There is so much to do and see.

 But I prefer to hibernate

Although I do appreciate.

 

The effort it’s prepared to make

I really do make no mistake.

I must cast off this lazy mood

I am sure that it would do me good.

 

I need some retail therapy.

There’s nothing really wrong with me

A little shopping will not cure.

I have responded to the lure.

 

I’ll wash my face and comb my hair

A quick car ride will take me there.

The metro centre beckons me

I can afford a spending spree.

 

If not today then tomorrow.

Although I may have to borrow

more energy from somewhere.

I will get up and go. So there.

This is simply amazing, I enjoyed this write.
Even if I don't know what lethargy means.

Wonderfully written, Poeticpiers. I love the quiet rant, almost as if you have no "get-up-and-go" for even a good complaint. A fun read!
