All in a Day

too soon
this moon

day’s chores
some scores

most not
forgot

deplete
need sleep

morning
warning

disarm
alarm

same old
sixfold

more work
can’t shirk

no fun
undone

work sucks
need bucks

Hi Gary. Many thanks. They say the same about food - eat to live, not live to eat. I actually quite like to work, but I like being ny own boss. :)

Beautifully done, dear Linda. We all rush through life and are stressed by our work. The last three sets are great.
