Daily Horoscope
According to my horoscope, “keep moving.
Don’t let laziness be the status quo. If you don’t
keep your promises, expect complaints.”
The romantic in me loves to play my heart out
but dislikes reminders about neglected plants.
I don’t want to stare at a monitor until I’m stiff
when a simple walk together will recharge my life.
Let’s take a trip downtown, out of town, any place
where I’m not running circles around you
and we participate equally in the adventure.

I enjoyed the space in this poem: how the speaker allows the reader in.
There’s a great tension in the lines:
“The romantic in me loves to play my heart out
but dislikes reminders about neglected plants.”
The last three lines are the clincher for me of this poem…
Let’s take a trip downtown, out of town, any place
where I’m not running circles around you
and we participate equally in the adventure.
I like!
