Half Day's Done

O' joy! Half day's done I look forward to good ol' rest; time with family, all and one time for mahjong, time spent best. O' joy! Half day's done have some news, have some songs; I'm sure to have lots of fun choose the good, cast the wrongs. O' joy! Half day's done I get my rest after four days' work; be a good boy, a good ol' son chill out cold, on an iceberg. O' joy! Half day's done I love my rest, two days' straight; and all those duties that weighed a ton just disappear like crusts of bread. O' joy! Half day's done I pray the Lord, O' bless my time; night has come, and much is won happiness is nigh', time to unwind. O' joy! Half day's done till the next weekend, shall i find peace; I pray the days will quickly run until then, a half day's done!

the poem made me feel a wonder to the joy of the person in the poem - and what they get to do, in there day of work life - it also made me feel like i was watching someone's day move along - like a preacher sitting in his office - /:-Þ
