When Energy Explodes
When Energy Explodes
What happens when you’re tired of feeling sad?
Do you eat chocolate and start to feel glad?
Then guilt sets in and you again feel bad
Then the sugar kicks in and energy explodes
Busy as a bee, folding clothes
Sweeping the patio
Still got ammo
Dancing the disco
Still going gung-ho
Picking up gusto
Cleaning the window
Geez, I feel like a yo-yo
My energy is beginning to drag
I’m kinda worn out like an old rag
Guess I’ll just go back to feeling sad
But look at my home, clean as a pin!
Now I’m back to feeling glad again.
I am a retired R. N. who loves to write poetry and fiction. I have just found recently that I love to write flash fiction with a twist. I write on hub pages.com. under the name of always exploring- AKA Ruby Fuller.

A cycle of madness, but at least the house is clean. lol Good one Ruby, so true, and who can resist chocolate? Most enjoyable.
Love the line, “Still got ammo”….. I think I run out of ammo a long time ago….
Delightful poem, Ruby. I must confess that I will grab a few bites of chocolate when feeling down. Love this poem.
Good to see you here, Ruby. A clean house is a happy house, right? Chocolate always helps lift the spirits though.
Hello John. I must admit that if my house is not shinning, I’m not a happy camper, and yes, chocolate is delicious and a picker-upper. I like this site and happy to write here. Thank you..
Wonderful I thoroughly enjoyed this gem Ruby.
Hello Eddy. It’s so good to see you here. I’ve missed your beautiful poetry on HP. So glad you enjoyed. Thank you…
Hello Tony. I’m so much like my mother. When she cleaned house it was like a tornado hit. I do love chocolate. I’m happy you enjoyed. Thank you.
Hello Kurt. I think my ammo is running low. lol..Thank you for reading and commenting.
Hi Phillis. Chocolate is one of God’s special delights. I do not know anyone who dislikes chocolate, and now it’s listed as a healthy food. ( In moderation of course. ) Hee. I looked everywhere for a larger picture for this piece but couldn’t find one. If you added the picture at the bottom, thank you. Where do you find your pictures? Thanks for reading…Happy you liked it.
Hi Ruby. We have a marvelous, very helpful tool for adding images to our posts – it is the Pixabay feature. You can find the Pixabay button when you are creating your post. It is above the edit box. You will find instructions on how to add Pixabay images in the Posting Help For New Members at this link: http://www.creativeexiles.com/help/help-new-members/ then scroll down to ‘Add image’ paragraph.
Thanks again Phillis. I will use the pixabay tool the next time. Cheers!
Haha! Super fun read Ruby. Having a clean house really picks me up when I’m down, less chaotic for the mind already burdened. And I do like chocolate-bittersweet. 🙂 Take care.
Best,
Mel
Hello Mel. I wrote this after a day of cleaning and a bit of chocolate was the icing on the cake. I like the dark chocolate. Thank you
