(Poem inspired by article at The High Calling & poetics “gift” prompt at dVerse.)
work is life gift
created to create
something productive
with whatever we have
stretch and hone abilities
promote one’s self-respect
provide for own desires
satisfy another’s need
give something back
to world we live in
joyfully serve six
actively rest one
weekly rhythm
work is life
…a gift!
