Week
Week
Monday rolls in, so full of promise,
Tuesday arrives with the Pacific War,
Wednesday is hump day and soon upon us
Thursday is empty and uncertain, unsure,
Friday senses an end to the book,
Saturday brings more time for tea,
Sunday falls softly with barely a look
so goes my week from the land to the sea.
This is retirement, the end of real work,
day follows day, a cycle of time,
habit the ruler, the vulture and stork,
over and over whether sainted or crime.

For Promptly Poetry Challenge 5, Week 7
Prompt: Use the following words in your poem: Monday, fall, tea, book.
Notes: The poem is quite personal since it describes my week, not yours. Much needs explanation but I’ll explain just the Pacific War reference. This recalls the fact that my favourite YouTube vloggers release each episode in their study of the Pacific War on Tuesday mornings. It forms my entertainment during breakfast on that day.
