HEART-TUGGING TIRED

HEART-TUGGING TIRED

Exhausted from a sleepless night,

He’s hard-put to put up a fight…

Heaves a sigh–

Would like a good cry–

Release…so he would feel right.

He found the right issue

To use his tissue…

Employed on the grounds

Of not having rounds,

He misses that he used to!

Didn’t quite make it to tears,

But the potential was good it appears…

A little pity is fine

If kept in line,

When back to reality it steers!

–Jonathan Caswell

ONLY SLIGHTLY…EMBARRASSED

ONLY SLIGHTLY…EMBARRASSED

Yesterday I came to work,

Readied to fly…

Pumped up to the extreme

With projects to try.

Had real fun at what I did

But some things I lacked…

Made some boasts to everyone,

But my resolve cracked!

Now I’m sitting down to write

Without the perky nerve…

Hard work and humility

More likely my fans serve.
