How To Set Life In Order comic poem 399 by Angela Lansbury

What have you done today?

Did you get enough rest?

Did you get up, clean teeth

Wash, get suitably dressed?


Did you eat your breakfast?

Clear old dishes away?

Up at five? Seven? Ten?

A good start to your day?


Is your desk clean and clear?

Have you planned your whole year

Have you done quite enough

To nod proudly, my dear?


Have you eaten five fruits

Ignored tempting toffee?

Marked no alcohol days

Counted cups of coffee?

Have you thrown out rubbish

Checked what says recycle?

Shared rides with passengers?

Tried to walk more? And cycle?


If you got up early

Confident and well dressed

Please call, encourage me

Help me sort out my mess.

PS

I hope you're feeling fine

Dine in sunshine like mine

You have spare time, so please be kind
