Can’t it wait a day?
I’ve got far too much to do.
This is just another obstacle in the way.
I don’t know how I’ll make it through.
Must I do this work now?
When it is far better to be outside?
The weather makes you say “wow”
So can’t these tasks just bide their time?
Is it really that important?
To do a never ending list?
Perhaps I should prioritize
And hold fast with an iron fist.
For what’s really important,
Is definitely the here and now
Friends and family warrant
For as much time as you can allow.
So, this task can wait a day
There’s far too much to do.
With my family, I’ll stay
And make a memory or two.
