A day in the Office

I scampered through the planner,
The monthly Project status,
Work on our list,
Milestones to reach and pass by,
All running through the mind,
Like school children at recess.

A report is to be made.
Highlighting our accomplishments,
Painting the failings in favorable tones
And concealing the blunders,
Under the carpet floor.

Thinking up a careful draft,
With delicate play of words.
I picked my pen,
And instead wrote a poem.

Earth Spirits

Earth bound spirits,
Nourish sleeping seeds,
Till their hibernation concludes,

And a sojourn with light is nigh.

Lighter in spirit,
Easier to soar.

Whisper a love note to the breeze,
Pass it on to the sun.
For the light and the warmth.

The dusk descends in its time,
And then night.
Earth receive what is its,
A promise fulfilled.

Earth bound spirits,
Nourish sleeping seeds,
Till their hibernation concludes.
