No Rest For Me

Would there be no rest for me As I toil through the day For I am weary now from the toil And would it have its way Would I stand up and face the storm As it chills me to the core For I am needed not to faultier But give me rest I do implore Would I be judged for what I lack I will only wonder why As I turn my face up to the sky And tears not flow from my eyes. © Paul Warren Poetry
