Hard Day Poem by Carolyn Brunelle

O sweet lord,
let me have my glass of wine,
some peace and quiet;
a little down time.
Don’t want to hear the news;
somebody else’s troubles right now,
I’ve got troubles enough of my own.
Never been much
of a pal or buddy
or party friend, and
it’s been a real hard day
finally come to an end.
Haven’t a clue
what other lives are all about,
where they get the energy
to play or to go out.
Because I’m tired,
I’m beat;
completely off my feet.
All I need is to crash
after a day like today
so please,
make the world
just go away.
so I can have a moment
and my
sweet wine time.
