there is so much to do
and nothing gets done
with an overloaded mind
mental fog
lacking structure
step by step
where to start
when all seems
to be important
write two columns
one for things you can do
one you have to get done
sort out the priorities
on the first side
and leave the rest
universe has your back
choose your tasks
trust in its help
and it is so
what a day!
it was today
I have to say
now standing tall
heavy steel beam
building strong team
in the sweat and heat
shedding calories
shoveling grit
bit of daily drama
before it was ready
sun burned steady
quickly setting
in the ground
concrete mound
gallons of water
out of the tank
like money from the bank
think positive
and on your feet
the groundwork
is complete
