I dropped a set of Bluetooth earbuds in the sink
didn’t know they’d gotten on my plate
time for bingo
didn’t wanta be late
took the dishes to the kitchen
was thinkin’ about something else
my mind was itchin’
when I saw them sitting in the water there
I felt suddenly much despair
then I decided to take a chance
to sing a different tune
do a new life dance
took them to a window filled with sun
put them in between the glass and screen declaring
it is done
they are dry and working now
yes the magik of mother nature can be found
use what you have is a motto I’ve held long
and now my poem
which is much too long
is
done
Mother Nature, Daughter Water and Sun

August 28, 2026I’m glad putting the earbuds in the sun did the trick. I would never have thought to do that. This poem might be a good fit for The Avocet, since it’s about Nature’s healing power.

August 28, 2026Thanks Abbie for reading and for the complement. I might send it in.
Yes, sitting things like that in the sun is a good trick.
