Time to Get Organized Writers’ Cramp

Time to Get Organized Writers’ Cramp

15 lines

Big Daddy had coffee at dawn in the Cosmos Coffee shop
After a typical night of drinking, the night away
Realizing that he was turning 69

He wrote in his morning journal
While watching the news,
He had so much to do,

had to get his life organized.
So many things left in life
So many bucket lists to check off.

Time to get off his butt
Time to get his proverbial s… together
Including his long-delayed will and estate plan.

But first, he would have another coffee
With a wee drop of rum
To sweeten and kick-start his morning.
