Driven To Distraction

The sun is shining on me & I’m thanking God for that

We’ve had some wakey bakey but still I’m feeling flat

Trying to be mindful but my mind is full of him

Glorious weather to be feeling so grim.

My mind wanders, thankfully, to the day ahead

A stroll across the city to my sister’s ‘stead

A family day, a soothing distraction

From a heartache-filled chain reaction.
