Today because we‘re all at sea.. I‘ll take a little time.

What could you do differently?

Today I can write differently

We’re literally at sea;

I’ll try for better poetry

Spend a little time.

---

I tell myself repeatedly

Not to write so rapidly

Jotting thoughts down randomly

With here and there a rhyme.

---

It changes things appreciably

Approaching them quite differently

As hopefully you’ll clearly see

When I just take more time.

---

Today I‘ll write more carefully

Organise more thoughtfully,

Use a structure that’s less free;

Has more consistent rhyme.

---

So today we‘re all at sea

And there is more time for me

I didn’t write so hurriedly

I tried to take my time.
