TROUBLING DAY OF REST

–

I have friends at church who love me,

At least I think so, but is hard to see…

I’m rarely there

While taking care

When exhaustion is too much for me.

–

Sunday is my one time to go,

To praise God with people I know…

Fearing a crowd–

Only ten–crying out loud,

Thay’s hardly a big group there,Schmoe!

–

Being borderline sick

And exhausted does the trick…

Hating my choice

With a raspy voice,

Afraid I’ll fall asleep at the stick!

–

Today, then, I stayed home,

Found that two days, Meds. were left home

Infrequent meds

I fancy bed’s

The best place for me at home.
