Poem - "I hung my washing upside down"
I hung my washing upside down, and the clouds winked at me.
They’ve been upside down before, they know this confusion.
I hung my washing outside to dry, and walked my socks in a puddle.
My socks have swum before, this feeling is no illusion.
I set my alarm for seven, and the blinds smirked at me.
They’ve slept in before, they know the temptation of warmth.
I snoozed my alarm four times, and forgot I boiled the kettle.
My kettle has been forgotten before, it knows how to settle.
I ate breakfast with no-one watching, and the flowers started dancing.
They’ve heard these songs before, they know this beat and flow.
I ate breakfast whilst my journal stared, and didn’t share a bite.
My journal can hear my thoughts talking, ideas to unlock and know.
I walked down the stairs in a new way, and the concrete wanted to join.
They’ve never tried these moves before, they know very few shapes.
I walked down the stairs with eyes closed and took a chance on life.
My life talks with all that isn’t me, always keeping me out of strife.
