Sometimes I really don't seem to know
Putting worries up on a mental shelf
Could give me some time unto myself
And storing them there 'til a later date
Leaving them there as long as they'll wait--
The main idea is to shut off the mind
With what's ahead of the thoughts behind
It's not illegal and might save my hide
For a moment, to let the chores slide
For taking a nap was my G'ma's way
To level things out, calm down her day
Adjust the attitude, brighten the thoughts
Instead of dwelling on all the 'naughts'
To establish as routine I can't do
To keep me steady and not so blue
Since work with numbers is my vocation
Sudoko's not a real vacation
I'll listen to the cd for awhile
And if I doze off, don't you dare smile
For maybe it's a ticket to a nap
To set my mind sailing through the gap
Between this old world and the other side
Where joy and peace are said to reside--
So then I'll come back fresh as a daisy--
Though you thought I was being lazy!
