Doing It in the Fast Lane


fastlane

In a blink
I think
I miss a link
Or two, or even a few…
At times
I’m behind
My imaginary line
With lots to do
And even time for a brew or two
But then
Again
I find
Hardly the time
To write a rhyme
Or host
A post
With the most
Thought
Which ought
To be included
In a post
With the most
I suppose
A thoughtless post
Is almost
Toast
And jam
And Gammon ham
But no spam
Not around here
Beyond the Sphere
This or any year
Oh, no
But again
Now is now and then was then
Writing this, doing that
Waking from a lovely nap
Up and doing, doing, DOING
Froming and toing
All such fun yet likewise a pain
Doing it whilst in the fast lane

Time to rest
That is best
But in a mo
I’m on the go
And can’t go slow
I’m in the fast lane
If it’s all the same
To –
Things get done
Rushed
Shush!
They must
Such

      Thanks, Jodi. It’s good, I suppose, that I manage to get something written in between doing everything else!

    Phew! After that, I think I need a long lie-down — totally out of earshot of the fast lane!

    You’ve just described my life, Tom, but at least you made me smile about it. I’m looking forward to a slow-down soon!

      I couldn’t tell you which lane I’m in right now, Sue. I’ve taken time out to reply, but things are whizzing by as I type. Most odd indeed! I’m also trailing behind right behind you! 😀
