Downsizing Means
A short poem about Downsizing. For many years, I worked for a major corporation. I loved my work with the exception of the times when my boss would start talking about the need to downsize. Downsizing meant I would have to let someone go.Downsizing Means
Poet Catherine Pulsifer
My previous life when I heard the term
downsizing meant a turn for worse
But now we are talking not about a job
We are talking about a smaller home
Letting go of space
Letting go of material things
Less room
Will this be doom?
But the benefits to me
Less housework you see
Lower heating costs
And a cosizer house
So now when I hear the term
Downsizing means
Living simply with
The things that mean something to me!
