I Meant To Do My Work Today

I dedicate this poem to myself. I've been tying to 'study' for an 'exam' but spent this last weekend in the rain! :) There's always something I need to...

I Meant To Do My Work Today
by Richard LeGallienne

I meant to do my work today,
But a brown bird sang in the apple tree,
And a butterfly flitted across the field,
And all the leaves were calling me.
And the wind went sighing over the land,
Tossing the grasses to and fro,
And a rainbow held out its shining hand,
So what could I do but laugh and go?
