BUSY

All in a days work
Sweat from the day's brow
Even from may's Frown
Nothing yet pays out.

All the working From day to day
Nothing quite works,
not a sunlight's ray

Then moon down comes
Our minds are at bay
We are at rest
Nothing much to say

Except for the work
And then the pay
Which keeps us moving
Which keeps us at bay

Else from the horizon
Then shall we sway
On and on till all comes nay.

After a much stressful Monday, i decided to write a poem. It's been three days since my last piece. I've mostly been doing game reviews, but then this poem came into mind.

Please read and understand, it's about working and the inevitability of our work. Which keeps food on the table. It's really simple to grab unlike the ones I've been writing these days.

DIVING DEEP

Stanza one

All in a days work
Sweat from the day's brow
Even from may's Frown
Nothing yet pays out.

This is mainly saying that all humans are meant to work, work and work. And even though we do work, the end results aren't all that satisfying.

Stanza two

All the working From day to day
Nothing quite works,
not a sunlight's ray

Like i said earlier, it's really frustrating when we work and work yet see no much change in situations and finances.

Stanza three

Then moon down comes
Our minds are at bay
We are at rest
Nothing much to say

You'll all know what happens when our jobs are really worrisome and tiring, that all through the day all you think about is getting home and sleeping at night. Well that's what this stanzas about.

Stanza four

Except for the work
And then the pay
Which keeps us moving
Which keeps us at bay

Then again what comes to your mind is the job you have to get to and also that you have to do it to get paid.

Stanza five

Else from the horizon
Then shall we sway
On and on till all comes nay.

In all things we have to work cause if we don't then nothing will work.

My quill bleeds

Very successful the poem. In Genesis 3:19 it says: "You will earn your bread with the sweat of your brow" Greetings friend.

Very true words, you're right without work there is no gain. Thank you for reading and commenting
