Weekends-An attempt at poetry

Weekends

Alas the weekend arrives,
full of activities and drive.
Yet some welcome it with open arms,
Knowing the rest will help them recharge.



Unfortunately, there are the rest of us,
who know that weekends only mean more fuss.
There are clothes to wash, houses to clean, papers to write, and papers to grade.
There's work to be done, Sunday School lessons to study, and lawn to be mowed.
No recharging for these folks.
Just a lot more work.



Perhaps our lives are too busy and that's why we stay so sick,
we are overcome with worry and stress.
I think we need classes so we can lick
our weariness.
