Living-With-Self

Time is elastic – it expands
To find work for our idle hands
So now that we are blessed with more
Think more avenues to explore!

From balconies, Italians sing
Nature walks now seem the thing
I expect you guess where I am leaning
Time to start on your spring cleaning...

The joy of sorting clothes and books,
And clearing dust from winter nooks
Not to mention making food at home
Beats chatting on one's mobile phone.

A parent with schoolkids may find
Teaching will excite their mind
And hey, new family bonds may form
When stepping out beyond «the norm».

Our non-stop lives are put on hold;
What new adventures will unfold?
Till April comes with bright spring rays
We're in a 'live-with-self' new phase ...
