Where can we go for a refuge
from the rising tides of tension?
Where can we find a haven
to escape the added confusion?
Shall we sit calmly for a moment
and let our mind drift back and reflect?
The truth is that life would bring frustration
and even with further disappoinment.
Yet I do pray continuously:
not to spoil the value of your weekend.
Just enjoy the fun and the satisfaction-
and that’s how it should be!
