Great Escape

Gone are the days when I could Run and hide from chopping wood - Escape from chores that I found boring And beneath me when rain was pouring Torrents on my young and eager head. Easy was the life that I lead. Somewhere along the way it came - Chores and learning were all the same Abounding with lessons the work would give, Powerful knowledge to help us live - Each chore I dodged, someone else lived my life 1/8/2020 Contest: Great Escape Sponsor: John Hamilton
