Quiet Time: a reblog

Posted on January 4, 2023 by pensitivity101

Thought I’d reblog a poem today as I haven’t been in my blog much because we’ve been out most of the day. Quiet time is nice sometimes.

We all need a bit of quiet time,
To put our feet up, gently unwind,
Relax into the evening hours
Lose ourselves in the soothing powers
Of gentle music, a soft refrain
That may take us down Memory Lane.
Closing ones eyes, slipping into the past
Recalling actions and ripples cast
Reaching out growing bigger to fade
Then begin again when the next one is made.
Happy times, sad ones were few,
Lots to look at, plenty to do,
Different to when Time Management was King,
These days I can concentrate on just one thing,
Tapping a keyboard,  a question is asked
The answer being ‘I can’t multi task!’

About pensitivity101

I am a retired number cruncher with a vivid imagination and wacky sense of humour which extends to short stories and poetry. I love to cook and am a bit of a dog whisperer as I get on better with them than people sometimes! In November 2020, we lost our beloved Maggie who adopted us as a 7 week old pup in March 2005. We decided to have a photo put on canvas as we had for her predecessor Barney. We now have three pictures of our fur babies on the wall as we found a snapshot of Kizzy, my GSD when Hubby and I first met so had hers done too. On February 24th 2022 we were blessed to find Maya, a 13 week old GSD pup who has made her own place in our hearts. You can follow our training methods, photos and her growth in my blog posts. From 2014 to 2017 'Home' was a 41 foot narrow boat where we made strong friendships both on and off the water. We were close to nature enjoying swan and duck families for neighbours, and it was a fascinating chapter in our lives. We now reside in a small bungalow on the Lincolnshire coast where we have forged new friendships and interests.

    Multi tasking isn’t as much in favor as it once was. It’s not too effective, but it sometimes is the only choice.

    No longer needing to multi-task is wonderful! One quiet thing at a time.

    Multi-tasking to me is getting one sock on after the other!
