New beginnings

Another chance

Fresh week starting

Monday romance.


I'll get it right

Submit on time

Eagle in flight

Soaring on rhyme.


Deadlines melting

Beneath my pen

Genius bleeding

Do it again.


Checklists tackled

New projects start

Nothing leftover

Joy in my heart.


Friday arrives

I won't quit

Monday dreams

Now bullsh**


Schedule shot

Past due date

Clock kicks my butt

They'll have to wait.


Scurry, finish

Time flew by

How I wish

Big Ben would die.


Not over yet

Eternal hope

As this week's goals

Become a joke.


Monday will come

In just two days

Partying done

I'll change my ways...

The week does seem to go faster as we go along...sometimes we have to KILL Big Ben! Well-penned and funny.

Oops, I lost the comment I posted first, hope you found it. Seems there's no editing allowed!

Every week flies by with the best intentions and then poof! it's gone!!

I lost comments earlier today, too - then somehow they just reappear. Hmmm....

I love the thing about Big Ben's butt, too. Cool poem

Hmm...Big Ben's butt...could even be another poem...

I misread the stanza but I figure you might like a shot at the Ben. ;)
Stacey Mamasaid Jan 25, 2012, 8:03am UTC
I think I'll take shot at Ben in the future...
