Distractions
Yet I stoop to capture
Every single
Luscious plant, which
Lures me towards its extra
Ordinary shade of yellow. Distracting
Wildflowers enticing me along another path.

Distractions are highly underrated.
Daily routines, work, commitments, and the demands of everyday life emphasise that I should focus on objectives and make sure I complete my ‘to do list’ without any distractions.
I disagree. I need to make time for myself and cross items off my ‘to be list’ (more on to do and to be lists here).
Walking, observing my surroundings, taking photos of anything which catches my eye, and writing poems, are some of my favourite distractions.
And now, back to my to do list. Monday is only a few hours away!
Which are your favourite distractions?

Beautiful, Luccia. When I have writer’s block, I go for a walk. Very often I’ll find it freeing. 🧡

Flowers are so captivating – good job with the poem! My release is swimming in my pool – hard during the winter months, but now that it’s marginally warm outside (60s) we’ve got it heated to 68-70, which I can tolerate. Nirvana!

Sounds freezing to me! I love swimming, but only when it’s warm.
