Sprung

by Dane Allred

Another useless wasted day

That makes me pound my fist and say

This wasted twenty-four hour span,

After my careful, detailed plan.

I whiled away the precious time

Playing with those plants of mine

Weeding here and planting there,

Cleaning up stuff everywhere.

Wondering why I can't hire

Someone to work and perspire

Instead of me toiling away

I'd rather go somewhere and play.

But wait, look at that spiffy yard.

By which mess is no longer marred.

A wasted day? There's no such thing

Especially as I welcome spring.

Spring has been sprung.
