Friday June 24 2016  A QUICK GOODNIGHT

SO NOTHING IS LEFT BEHIND

By Kathleen Martens

June 24, 2016

How soon a day is over

When something must be done.

How long a day becomes

When it’s not about having fun.

And yet, to be truthful,

I enjoyed doing what I did today.

I didn’t need to go any where

And people just came my way.

Lots of interesting stories,

And wonderful people to meet.

Maybe I should set up shop

And have a garage sale every week.

But then again, on second thought,

I must remember I am retired.

I’ve so much to accomplish,

Before my end date is expired.

So I will pick up all the pieces

Of the junk left behind,

Get my house back in order

Before I lose my mind!

No magic wand can make it happen,

So I must put my nose to the grind.

And pack it up and then donate

So that nothing is left behind!

THE END

I didn’t really know if I was finished with the poem but I decided to end it anyway so I can get my beauty sleep. 

Thank You God for all the wonderful stories I heard today.

Thank You for bringing so many people my way who are strong believers in You.

Thank You Lord for a husband who worked so tirelessly and painfully to accomplish all he did for the garage sale.

Thank You for Your protection over this day.

Thank You for yogurt and bran buds.  They makes such a nice easy dinner.

GOODNIGHT AND GOD BLESS YOU!
