Take a Break-for Goodness's sake

Take a Break-for Goodness's sake

Life is fast, a mad dash race,

It is blur, an endless chase.

A sprint through time, no time to waste,

Only hustle, never a space.

So let’s breathe easy and press the pause,

Forget the work and break the laws.

Leave the daily grind and tiring tracks,

Be lazy, kick back, and relax.

Live life in slow motion,

Busy days? Cut that portion.

Take some time to recharge yourself,

Put the stress on a higher shelf

binge a show, sleep like a sloth

forget the stress remove its froth

have some pizza and some cake

take a break for goodness's sake

    Yes indeed. Taking a break from a fast pace stress-fill lifestyle is needed. It can help prevent strokes and other health problems. Love this poem. Very encouraging.
