Gershon Wolf Poet Couplet

The World I Find

It’s a cold, cruel world out there
  I’ve heard such words, meant to scare

Yet when inside my home, in here
  with family dear there is no fear

Life is tough, and then you die
  I’ve often heard this plaintive cry

Yet on the Sabbath Day I find
  blessed rest from weekday’s grind

L Milton Hankins June 17, 2022 at 7:36 AM I'd say that's why God gave you the Sabbath Day, gw. Enjoy your blessed rest.
