This Gentleman's Workday

Arose before dawn Smelled the coffee Fed my dog Worked in a workout Showered and dressed Drove ahead of the pack First in the building Dove headfirst into work Developed and crunched concepts Made calls and commitments Met people shook hands Exchanged and grew trusts Followed through and advanced Checked up on progress Oiled wherever needed Jumped inevitable hoops Made sure all were pleased Refused all distractions Did the best that I could Stayed focused and faithful Performance objectives achieved Was a well oiled machine Turned off the lights Drove home in the dark Quantified the day Satisfied with exception Smiles were mostly obligatory Heart remained disengaged Were you my reward At the end everyday The brass ring I reach for Would transform into gold Cut excess work-time Embark in joyful productivity Blessed forevermore creating with you Fed my dog Fed me Said my prayers Went to bed
