The chance to unwind

by Joanna on July 19, 2007

I don’t know about you but every so often I find a book of ‘daily quotes’ or ‘daily poems’ that becomes a great companion throughout the year.  For 2007 I decided to keep myself cheerful and light-hearted by dipping into a book of children’s poems - Read Me and Laugh - a funny poem for every day of the year.  It’s a great reminder to self to lighten up…

I thought I’d share today’s entry with you.  It’s called "All the Trappings" by Graham Denton.

"Said the Mummy, ‘I’m starting to find
That this job is a bit of a bind.
Though I’m white as a sheet
And feel dead on my feet
I just don’t get the chance to unwind!’"

This one’s dedicated to all the busy mums out there.  I hope you’re getting the odd moment during the long school holidays to relax and unwind :)
