MONDAY-
The Sequel
Yesterday I wrote a poem about the first day of
the week
I said it got a bad rap and I thought the day
unique.
Then I heard from a friend on Facebook who
does not think like me
Who works a variable schedule and sees Monday
differently.
She works in the restaurant industry and it blew
me away
To hear that Monday, yes it’s true, is her most cherished day.
While my most cherished weekend-- time I can’t
wait to spend
She is
working tirelessly and can’t wait for it to end.
This led me to think about the others who keep
this world afloat
While I rest on my sofa changing channels with
my remote.
To the soldiers doctors, police and firemen just
to name a few
Who have uncertain schedules not like me or you.
Who are out there working weekends to their family’s
dismay
So I have the time with my kin, to run and jump
and play.
So thank you all the people who make weekends
available to me
And thank you Chrissy for showing—not everyone
thinks like me.
