Work Poem by Egbebi Mariam

Work

Rating: 4.8


Work

I woke up in the delightful morning,
With so much aspirations and hopes,
Feeling very happy, but something made me curious,
Work, Work, today again,

Thinking of how today will be at work,
Thinking about the struggles am gonna pass through at work,
Thinking about the queries am gonna hear at work,
But, I feel depressed by the correction am gonna see at work,
Which I will learn from it,

The Boss complains and queries,
The customers complain,
Customers' re-directions,
Work Work,

Suddenly, something came to my mind,
The Fun am gonna see at work which makes me very happy,
The love people will give or show to me,
The moral that I will learn,
The playful play I will see which will entertain me,

Do you love your work?

I like how you ended the poem. And the penultimate stanza conveys a very optimistic view on work and life.

A wonderful poem that touches on the realities of life especially on the life of an employee or even an employer. We all need to work to sustain the basic necessities of life. Like you, I have been working since Day 1, right after.graduation and the feelings you are going through are also what I usually feel.
