Today I take advantage of Word Press’s Weekly Challenge,
To challenge my husbands allegations I’m directionally challenged.
For though there is some truth in this I think that I know best,
And surely I’m familiar with my north, south, east and west.
It’s merely just a matter that my heads so full of stuff,
I don’t get the opportunity to look around enough,
So all this is why yesterday afternoon found me,
Outside with specific purpose to notice what’s around me.
I noticed all the flowers, I noticed all the signs,
I looked down at the sidewalks and studied all the lines,
I noticed all the houses and I noticed all the trees,
I noticed all the birds and I noticed all the bees,
I noticed all the scenery and all the streets I crossed,
And after about an hour, I noticed I was lost.

Glorious Results Of A Misspent Youth 
True story!
Says you…
Sounds like a good reason to be lost. Worthwhile, I mean.
I suppose it’s true. Problem is, I don’t need much reason to get lost.
Superb verse!
“When you’re lost and all alone, there’s ain’t no name for lonely…” They call the wind Marissa
Wow, they cal the wind Marissa?! How did I not know that??

Very good verse and I have decided that ‘directionally challenged’ is a relative phrase….it all depends on what you’re looking for! I think you took a lovely little trip…perhaps not the trip you set out on, but a lovely little trip just the same…..
Thank you…now go tell my husband that (lol)
That final photo is like finding yourself at the corner of “Walk” and “Don’t walk.”
Exactly! Story of my life btw!
I am SO relating from over here. No…no, over HERE….. no no no Marissa over THIS way. Sigh. Well, here I am relating. 😉
Thank you, that actually means a lot!
😉 I’ve got your back. If I could find it. I am not exaggerating.
I’m laughing! I love the poem………
Thank you!

I hope your occupation is something that lets you be creative because your daily poetry is brilliant.
If by that you mean a job that is so completely unchallenging and boring that all I do all day is blog and write poetry, then, yes, yes it does. Thanks Phil!
You should publish a book of your poetry. It’s hilarious. You’re the new Shel Silverstein. Or maybe Shelly Silverstein.
