You could do the dishes
the taxes, the laundry
You could play
catch-up on email
Sweep the floor
and scrub the toilets
You could balance
the bank statement
or go ahead
with your heavy-set
plans to scratch
off your list
Today the
sun is shining
bright and high
You could
sip cappuccino
by the window
snuggling with your cat
You could listen
to a love song
and draw a mandala
Invite your child
to play or dance
without any need for
correction
You could say yes
to your lover
and bake homemade bread
There is no need
for caution
to enjoy
the bounty
of the now
Life
is sweeter unplanned
