Timeout

My system, has asked for a time out

For reasons quite manifold

I certainly hope it’s a short bout

Right now it is leaving me “cold”

My writing, my love and my passion J

Will have to be put on hold

I hope you will wait with compassion

For stories that long to be told

Now, promise me you will be smarter

When bodily signs do appear

With them it is stupid to barter

Their message is simple and clear:

Go play with your friends, take a breather

Embrace every soul that you meet

Take detours both hither and dither

Then go home and put up your feet

It may take a while, maybe longer

To untangle “cable” and “wire”

But somehow we will emerge stronger

To do all our heart may aspire!
