Dramatis persona*

helenhead Helen Chick

I've always wanted a bumper sticker that said "I'm a female, LDS/Mormon, Scout leading, geocaching, piano-playing, bicycling, mathematics educator with a PhD in maths ... and I VOTE"!

I think this makes me a minority group of cardinality 1!

* Since there's only one of me and "personae" is plural (I think), I've gone with dramatis persona.

69. Annoyance [100 poems challenge]

 

69.          Annoyance

So many things that I’m wanting to do
So many hobbies I’d like to pursue
So many friends for keeping in touch
So many side-tracks distracting me much
So many mem’ries I’d like to recall
So many bushwalks and mountains so tall
So many promises I’d like to keep
So many nights when auroras don’t sleep
So many songs that I’m longing to sing
So many plantings that can’t wait ’til spring
So many caches I’m eager to find
So many thoughts floating round in my mind
So many plans thwarted by this malaise:
Far too few hours in far too few days.

Comments:
Not so much annoyance as frustration. There are so many things that interest me and that I want to do or try or keep doing. After this little 100 poems exercise, however, I may never want to write another poem again!

Themes to come: 70. 67%; 71. Obsession; 72. Mischief Managed; 73. I Can’t; 74. Are You Challenging Me?

Explanation about the 100 poems challenge here.
