If you’re always racing to the next moment, what happens to the one you’re in? ~Author Unknown
Even nature takes a little break.
She pauses between each season
To catch her breath, so to speak.
Within a season too,
Flowers bloom and rest.
All of us need
Some time off.
Don’t you
Think?
Note: As you probably guessed, it’s time for me to take a wee pause. Happy Fathers’ Day to all the dads reading this, and I’ll be back shortly. By the way, this poetry form is a Nonet, nine lines with a decreasing number of syllables in each line.
Enjoy your break, Debbie! You’re absolutely spot on. Just like the seasons of nature, we need a break now and then.
By the way, that photo of the Daylillies is so beautiful!
You take care, my friend. And we’ll see you when you return.

Thank you, Ron. Glad you enjoyed it! I’ll be back soon (just got some things I need to tend to) xo
I do think. As a matter of fact, I’m taking a break from running the country with my camera today, just to stay home, pay bills, and do some cleaning. That may sound like an odd kind of “break,” but any change in routine can be refreshing. Enjoy yours!
Doesn’t sound like an odd break to me, Linda! That’s just the sort of thing we all need to do — that we don’t get done unless we make time for it. Personally, I think I’m just tired — and a change in routine will be heavenly!
Love the poem, enjoy your break!
Thanks very much, Dawn — I won’t be away too long!
Have a relaxing break, Debbie. 😁
Thank you, John. I debated whether to take a pause now or wait until a better time, but this felt right. For me, it’s better to break while I’ve still got my enthusiasm, rather than wait until I’m completely drained!
😁
Debbie, have a good break! (Hope you can squeeze in a little extra chocolate — and some fun!) Break-blessings – VA 🙂
Thanks, Virginia — I really need a break now and am glad to take one! Chocolate sounds like an ideal way to enjoy time off!!
Have a lovely break, Debbie – hope you get some sunny weather and the chance to enjoy it!
