Time for myself or Stealing Time
Prompt for November 17, 2012: Tell us if you have any secret ways of finding time for yourself. By Brother Nature Author Icon. "30-Day Blogging Challenge ON HIATUSOpen in new Window.


Moments stolen
between dishes washed
and laundry done...
a hot cup of coffee,
a newspaper,
or a prayer book.

Perhaps the house is silent
or the neighbor's dog is barking...
background music
for meditation
to sooth my weary soul,
my aching body.

These seconds
stolen for myself
transform drudgery
into joyful labor.
