A Personal Day

Sometimes we just

Must get away

From the stresses and duties projected

From life's busy pace,

To just watch the race

And rest on a bench unexpected.

Inspiration / Author Note

"Playing hooky" is one of life's guilty pleasures. Doing it spontaneously is all the better. Reminds me of the Jimmy Buffet line, "What would they do if I just sailed away?" My hope is this little rhyme will give you all the permission you need to look for that bench.
