Lock down Home maker
Early morning I wished to enjoy the sunshine in the balcony
However rushed to prepare iIdly and chutney for the family
I wanted to enjoy the pleasure of cool breeze
But got stuck in cooking chick peas
I wished to relax and savour a cup of tea in the living room
But ended up holding a mop stick and a broom
I sat down to watch my favourite show
But Mother -in–law reminded me to knead the dough
I felt like lying down and reading a magazine
But suddenly remembered to dry clothes from the washing machine
I thought of jotting down some beautiful lines
But I was held up with cleaning the utensils
I tried to exercise for a few minutes
But ended up in resolving kids petty fights
I wanted to listen some old melodies
But all I got to hear was mixer and juicer sounds
I felt like devouring books to gather some amazing facts
But daughter made me play snake and ladders
I loved to practice my art work
However I got busy in monitoring my son’s homework
I thought to go through my favourite blogs
However my time went off in sorting out groceries and clearing the scattered things.
I wanted to work out on my presentation skills
But I landed up making husband “s favourite snacks
In between I managed to lay hands on solving some puzzles
But Father in law asked my help in searching his
spectacles
I switched on the TV to catch up on news
However it made me to go into blues
Hurray! I finally got some time to chat with my friends and cousins
Alas! It was the time to switch off lights and say good night
.
Oh mother earth !
You too have got some respite from the hustle and bustle of this world
When do I get my time ?
