Solve Problems at Leisure

My work day is full of many distractions

I am constantly involved in multiple interactions

With colleagues and patients, and sometimes I find

The constant communication too taxing for my mind

Such that half-formed thoughts remain in suspension

As another pressing matter grabs my attention

Thus complex problems that time and focus need

Stay unsolved during working hours indeed

*

Once the work day is over and chores at home are done

And I’m trying to read or write something outside of work, inspiration

Strikes me suddenly, and a workable solution I find

To the problem that had been occupying my mind

Though work encroaches on my leisure time in this way

That “me” time allows problem-solving at the end of the day..
