A Morning Thought about Intend
By
Walt Perryman
I am not even near as young as I used to be!
But intending to get stuff done is killing me!
I am retired, but I stay busy doing nothing,
You’d think I would accomplish something.
I have been cleaning my barn out for 7 years,
It is still not done, and this increases my fears.
I have good intentions as does almost everyone,
But I - my good intentions never get anything done.
I don’t know how I stay so busy doing nothing,
Today, I intend to not intend and do something.
