DULL IS GOOD AT TIMES

It has been a dull day.  Other than doing what was necessary and dragging the patio umbrella out into the ally for trash pick-up in the morning, I have been lazy.  Tomorrow I need to get busy.

The little mouse came back, but this time I caught it in a bag and put it in the trash can.  Sorry, mouse.

 PLEASURE HUNT

*

Who says there's nothing here to do

And life for them gets boring...

You'll never find me idle or

in bed just merely snoring.

*

There's books to read and weeds to pull

Flowers that need smelling...

And roads to walk and streams to wade

And stories that need telling.

*

There's friends to cheer, when life gets drear

And gardens that need hoeing...

Or take the boat down to the creek

To fish or go a-rowing.

*

The song birds need a listening ear

God's creatures need attention...

Roll up your sleeves and go to work

That will rid you of your tension.
