THE A TO Z CHALLENGE 2015: N IS FOR NEVER ON SUNDAY:

 WELCOME ONCE AGAIN TO 
THE A TO Z CHALLENGE 2015:
AGAIN I WILL CHOOSE A SONG TITLE
THEN WRITE MY OWN POEM:
N
is for
NEVER ON SUNDAY:
RECORDED BY DON COSTA
AND HIS ORCHESTRA:
For those who are participating
In the "Challenge A to Z."
Are well aware we take a break
Each and every Sunday.
 
It gives one the chance to catch up
On the mundane household chores.
Or visit other blogs,
Like hopefully others visit yours.
 
Others put their Sunday best,
Off to church they strive.
To give praise and thanks to God
For the good things in their lives.
 
Sunday may well be a family day,
That congregate around the table.
Catching up on life in general,
If one is well and able.
 
So never on Sunday
Send a post to A to Z.
Unless you live across the pond,
Where the time zones differ.....just like me.

    1. I 've got into the habit of blogging sometimes I do blog on a Sunday, I always post my A to Z as I go to bed because of the time zones.

  11. Sundays I treasure. No blogging. No alphabet. No guilt for not getting to that last blog to comment. We've made it N and you've helped get us there with your poetry.
