Karen Conrad Poet Rhyme

Now That the Work Is Done

Now that the work is done
I can relax for awhile - and the have some fun.

Here and there - I run about the house
Then off to do some shopping - all about.

Now I can relax -and put up my feet
You can believe - the work was no treat.

Body aching - feet and back
Thank goodness it's over - thanks for the slack.

To recline back - on a sofa so soft
Feel the aches ease away - the pressure is off.

Before you know it - you're so at ease
Next thing you know - you have fallen asleep.

Aah!  What a wonderful rest from the day
Of unlimited work - and no extra pay.

Now that I've had my rest and a nap
Thank goodness the work was over - before I snapped.

Just to snap - could have ruined a good day
It could have hurt peoples feelings along the way.

Now that the work is done - I look to a new day
As I lay me down to sleep - to the Lord I pray.
