Life is Sweet

——————————————————–

Why do you let your dreams

Settle at the bottom of your life

Under the weight of the day to day

Like an unstirred blob of honey

At the bottom of a warm mug of tea

Not sweetening the drink

Not making a difference

Resulting in something less enjoyable

Than it could be?

——————————————————–
