Summing up

The thing

That I am least good at

Is doing it now


Which

In turn

Means


The thing

That I am best at

Is procrastination


If you will

Follow on

Here we are

Here and now

At

The penultimate page


What does this mean

For the next

Notebook

Does one think


I ought to be

Decisive

But to be honest

That’s not my style


Although perhaps

To have space

For longer poems

Yes that’s the one

Placement

I will travel

Find places to go

I will unravel

The wonderful feelings

Which made me so


Where to go next

Where to go now

The trials of the text

Amidst the wide-eyed mix

Of wondering how


All alone

With thoughts in a whirl

Yes, here on my very own

Writing, waiting for love

To gradually unfurl

Blissfully Aware

Expectation

As if the day itself

Was part of a play

As opposed to one mind

Dictating events


Inclination

As if to wander

Was due to the joy

Found in unexpected places

Where time stood still

Awareness

The page is blank

An open invitation

To begin the day lightly

With no overriding

Sense of purpose

Other than to enjoy

The beauty of being

The deliberate nature

Of breathing, of smiling

Of writing au revoir
