Hard Work for Me is Child's Play

   I love my job
     I work all day

   Hard work for me
     is child’s play 

   Labor is its own reward
     And, you know, I’m never bored

   Yet every week’s
     a two-edged sword --

   that starts out fast
     then slows down

  Thursday wears a frown… but
    Friday’s payday! ~ Hit the town!

Hi, I don't like working for our business i find it a burden, but no options, in fact it seeks us out. So well known after 35 years. On top of which it takes me away from poetry for which i have a passion. Hugs and blessings. Jennifer.
