The List

Ah, the humble list.
When energy flags
Yet home things need tending
The list suggests and guides
No demands

Just a list
Scraps of paper
Sticky notes
Maybe on a napkin
In pencil or pen

Checked off one at a time
Bubbles of satisfaction float in the air
Another little wee job done
Aroma of shepherd’s pie
Walk on a lovely day to the post office.

Ah, the humble list.
Energy restored
Home things put in order
Gently guided by my little list
Kindness and actions became one


“Lists are how I parse and manage the world.”
