Do I care? Should I care?
So much to carry, and nowhere to go.
I have all the time in the world,
but limited energy.
All I need is a place to rest.
My feet and shoulders hurt
from lugging all the load,
from all the aimless walking.
And a seat is what I see,
right smack in the middle.
A fine seat for a nice piano,
a grand one, in fact.
But nobody is playing.
I don't see any.
Nothing wrong with taking the seat
for a bit, just a tiny bit?
I will leave if someone wants to play,
promise.
Do I care about the stares and looks?
I do, I think.
But let me do some reading
and distract my mind.

Upvoted! Thank you for supporting witness @jswit.
There comes a time in our lives when all we want is to rest, read something interesting, or listen to a soft melody. Years bring us the wisdom to appreciate the things that seem simple but can mean so much.
I'm glad to see you back.
Thank you @adeljose. It is nice to be back. And yes, as we grow wiser, good quality restful time means so much more than anything.
A super entry!
There's no need to add #pic1000 in your title.
I loved reading you.
By the way, that is a very smart lady and she even started singing to scare away the visitors. 🤣
The seat is hers.
This booming vote is yours and well deserved.
❤️🍀
Ooopss sorry...removed! :)
Haha yes, singing works but hey, she might attract visitors instead but by then, they would love for her to have the seat longer.
Thank you so much for your booming vote and thank you for stopping by! ❤️
