Balancing the Load

Bills to Pay                                                                       Friday is payday
Homework to do                                                            Finally, I’m through
Dishes to wash                                                              Hubby likes to josh
Winter blues                                                                       Summer muse
Apathy’s Restlessness                                       Enthusiasm’s breathlessness
Night storms				                                  Morning sun warms
Marital disagreements                                                     Nuptial reverence
Expensive mortgage					               Scenic home privilege
Worries and anxieties                                                        God’s reliability
