Rain is falling
branches ready to snap
leaves blow everywhere
he waits to go rake
leaves pile higher
at least clear a path so I won’t fall down
little at a time will get the job done
🍁🍁🍁🍁🍁🍁🍁
Rain is falling
look the sun just came out
grab your rake and go
it might not last long
glistening on tree
how can you take a nap at times like this
it could be the last time we see this sun

Procrastination is something I find irritating in others, but alas something I’m very forgiving of in myself. I was searching for the Halloween theme here as I read until the chilling last line. Spooky! Nice duodora form also, candy corn bonus earned!

I find it annoying too but nagging helps a little bit, smiles. Enjoy the warmth of the sun!

Like this piece, familiar trappings. Procrastination comes far too easily to me, and then when my ADD flips, I can work, head down, like a demon — both sides of that coin are exhausting.
