Over We Go With A Return In Tow!


 Over and under.
Around and through.
Lightning and thunder.
A returning view.

It leaves and it strikes.
It goes with the breeze.
Like the riding of bikes.
Like the pesky fleas.

Back we go.
Back we come.
A new yet same show.
A new yet same chum.

Glum or glee.
Anger or cheer.
Blah to weee.
Delightful to hear.

Hear you will.
Times two or three.
A return to fill.
A wavering sea.

Back and forth.
Up and down.
The hills up north.
The tiny elf town.

Around and through.
Through and around.
Told that to you.
So shouldn't astound.

But it may.
But it will.
When a return display,
Fits the bill.

Think it is done.
Much the way of summer.
Gave it's final run.
Isn't that a bummer?

So many days.
So many weeks.
Around comes the maze.
Valleys and peaks.

Ever think you are rid of something yet it comes back? Sure can do that with many a thing at many a shack. Some insecurities like to shine back through. One just has to push on at their zoo. Did it before, can do it once more. Whether or not they come back, like summer will at most every shack. Things always come back in mass. In that you can trust my little rhyming ass.

Fill your rummer, get drunk all summer.

  6. And sometimes insecurities evaporate into thin air
    Only for a minute before they return with a flair

  7. Your insecurities are pretty darn secure after all.

  9. Those insecurities like to come back
    you never know when they will attack
    I’d like to give them a good whack
    causing anxiety at many shacks

    It’s like a ball bounced against a wall
    always bouncing back at you
    just need to catch it before it falls

      True, insecurities can bounce too

  11. All the things we despise the most
    Keep returning as if we’re the host
    Make themselves comfortable in a wink
    Not giving a hoot what we think

  13. Life goes on,
    And on and on,

    It's the same old song.

    Easy does it and to take it slow
    Things forgotten
    Best not to return
    Or else it will mean asking for more!

  16. Those who suffer chronic illness definitely feel this all the time. We go into remission and think, "yeah, I'm healthy now." Then, after months or years, it sneaks back up on you and you're miserable all over again.

  17. It is the way of life, what had left always finds a way home.

  18. Like a boomerang
    the song that you sang
    or that STD rash
    things return in a flash.

  19. Summer will stay
    forever at my bay
    I will not let go
    even if there's snow
    because in my heart
    sun and sand is always a part
    so even when it gets too cold
    On to summer I will hold

    Screw winter!

      Damn, that beats smashing a printer

      What? You said it right there in view
      Although you may scare
      Best to stay with the giant litter box at your lair

  20. So true what you say about them coming back and doing so en mass. Great poem.

  21. Like depression...it keeps coming back.

  22. Every time I think I'm over my insecurities, they come back. Writing never ends either; always another edit, or another story to start/finish, or more blogging. Keeps us writers busy, right?

    1. Yep, it sure never ever ends

  23. Kind of like the definition of insanity. Some things happen over and over again.

    ReplyDelete
  24. Maybe our insecurities keep us humble, so it's not a horrible thing that they keep coming around.

    ReplyDelete
  25. When it keeps coming back
    I thought of clients, who lack
    Budgeting skills so they return
    Over and over like a rash, feel that burn.

    1. Hopefully there is some cream

  26. New issues may pop up from time to time, but it's usually those same old pesky "friends" that keep coming back to pay us a visit. It's up to us to make sure they aren't so comfortable that they overstay their welcome. Kick 'em out!

    1. haha and kick em out is the way

  28. Happy Be-lated IWSG Day!
    Is it odd that I find this both daunting and a bit hopeful?

    ReplyDelete
  29. Yes, Happy Belated IWSG post day. Insecurities like certain illnesses give us a break from time to time, but return visits are what makes us seekers.

    1. Yep, return they surely do

  30. Hey, Pat! Sometimes I feel really insecure in a big bookstore. I look at all those books, and I think any book of mine would be hopelessly lost among all these books. Then I give myself a kick in the butt and tell myself that if all these people can publish a book, so can I. Hi to Orlin and Cassie.
