Pause

This pushy era Captures agenda Non-stop demands press As schedules address No time to waste now Get going somehow Go this and that way No time to delay So much urgency Plus all things noisy No time to reflect With panic attacks So much to do here Yet nothing endears Rush from here to there Then going nowhere No wonder the strain And stress and disdain Why not take a break For your kind old sake? Pause for just a while Relax with a smile Hurry you must stop Or else you will drop Take time out to breathe This will save you grief Live simple pleasures Enjoy such treasures Leon Enriquez 26 January 2015 Singapore
