John Leong Poet Rhyme

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!

Verlecia Fields June 27, 2017 at 6:12 AM 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 John Leong June 30, 2017 at 12:55 PM Praise the Lord! i hope you have the joy of the weekend that slowly arrives; it's nice to have something to look forward to after a long, long week. thanks for sharing! cheers!
