Pulled in Every Direction

Posted on October 20, 2020 by Mary (tqhousecat)

If it doesn’t draw me
There’s no attraction
A powerless magnet
Is no distraction

My mind is filled
With undone tasks
Why force myself
Why overflow this laden flask –

Sun now falling
Moon rising high
Stars embrace the tempting light
I succumb and write

ddversepoets.com Monday quadrille. Submitted Tuesday evening. Some days just too busy. The word is magnet.

    I’m so glad you succumbed, Mary.
    I love this line, especially: “Why overflow this laden flask”
    I feel like that many days, too.
