today

the scarecrow is blown over and the pumpkin's in the ditch and
i haven't got the mail or on the quilt sewed a single stitch.
the chickens were not let out and the dogs are being bad.
they chewed right through the hosepipe, which was new and now I'm mad.
i haven't fed the geese yet and there's laundry yet to do;
within 30 minutes hubby's home and wanting food.
i've gained another pound instead of losing at the gym,
i'm hungry for the foods that will never make me thin.
today's a gift that i've been given
but i haven't been too kind...
i haven't thanked the Giver
just unwrapped my gift and sighed.
