tick-tock tick-tock
The clock nags the minutes away.
The work is due at 12PM.
I’ve got no time to play.
But 160 calls and I can’t say no.
My work will have to wait!

ReplyDeleteHey, you can't work ALL the time. 160 isn't such a long break. As to my 160, it's a follow up on the one about my son from last week. See, I'm not nagging you at all. The clock does plenty of that.

ReplyDeleteExcellently played, Patti!! Deadlines can get too much at times! And at such time, one really needs a break, like a 160!! :)
Enjoyed this one!! :)
Tracy: Thank you. Sometimes we need a bit of whimsy, no?
ReplyDeleteKavita: Actually, I'm rather fond of breaks most of the time! ;-)
If you don't look at the clock it doesn't really exist.
ReplyDeleteIt's the lesson of retirement. I'm learning it well!
