Staying Concerned

for a better life

Good workers know something
lazy folks never learned
The practice of multi-tasking
is how to stay concerned

 

If there is always a job to do
the future stays in focus
With nothing very important ahead
life is only hocus-pocus

 

Trickery plays a role
for those who hate to work
That is why their dishonesty
often makes them go berserk

 

When a man more than one-hundred
still works an eight-hour day
Enjoying every minute
he has discovered a better way

 

What happens to us is certain
and exactly what to expect
The reason life draws the curtain
is because its working that we reject

 

Any work you do that requires
your attention to every detail
Is the kind of effort you need
if you do not want to fail

 

The story of everyone's success
is all about enjoying work
These poems each take hours
giving me the needed perk

 

Retiring many years ago
my need required something weighty
As I said before above
that's why I still work at eighty
