when I was younger

I could keep

many balls in the air

 

a job, checkbook, relationships  

shopping, car-maintenance 

tennis, lunches

  birthdays, trips

 

now, if I manage to catch

one thing life throws my way

I celebrate with a nap

 

rest up and

get my strength back

so I can worry about

what’s coming next
