Focus  (written based on the writing prompt, re-write a fairy tale. see if you can guess which fairy tale it is.) 

Fairy tales illustrated

Fairy tales illustrated (Photo credit: kaswenden)

there will always be someone who thinks

they can out run you

out talk you

and out smart you

but if you slow down

take the time to learn all you can

take the time to read

and pay attention

practice patience

use your GPS

take your time

and pray

you will surely leave them

in the dust

haiku for busy-bodies (definition of a busybody (noun): people who “buzz” around other people, avoiding work at their own job, but like to get their nose into what you are doing and try to tell you what to do.  they are very influenced by others who can easily tell them what to do to try to get in your way for no apparent reason.)

 

 

please stay in your lane

when you don’t do your job

I’m not quitting soon
