That Time of the Year

Push, hurry, stress, worry
Go fast as time won't last
Feel hazy and a bit crazy

Yes, it's that time of the year

Another laundry pile makes you lose your smile
The window sill more inviting than the treadmill
An unmopped floor blankly stared at many times before
and piles that were NOT now clutter EVERY spot!

Yes, it's that time of the year

Take a deep sigh and look up to the sky
see the colorful sunrise.  Be simple and wise
Be mild with your husband, wife or child 
Hug your daughter or son when the day is done
Praise what is good as you most often should

Remember.....it's that time of the year

A great message here, for those with ears that can hear:) I go one step beyond and thank God for all things good and bad. For through the bad times are we taught our need for God in our lives that cause us to cling to Him, and its through them that our faith is multiplied. God bless and keep the faith, and remember that to Him its always that time of the year.
