Swirl Girl

Champion of whirl
From that, to this
Plans and promises
Projects and lists

What to start first?
What to finish the last?
If only a question of
Staying on task

All top priority
Of importance utmost
So what goes on hold?
She knows she knows

Center her world
Obligations reeling
Stop and name
This familiar feeling.

Instant of calm
This storm subsides
Moment of rest
A quiet resides

Then the wind blows again
And she’s up in a spin
Twirling and swirling
To no peaceful end?
