stress-free

Everyone deserves a break,

Me included,

I cavorted under the majestic sun,

swimming to heart’s content.

 

Due to ill effects of aging,

forgot to apply sunscreen,

wait and see if I will get a tan,

or a sunburn that is.

 

After gruelling months

of work and study,

I spent the whole day,

enjoying a stress- free day.

 

Because of this

Free-day,

my muse is nowhere

to be found.

 

Perhaps it will come

back in a day or so.

Sangayon po ako need natin paminsan-minsan ang pahinga para iyong health din natin ay okey.lalo na kung kasama family habang nagrerelax.

and now my friend i am stressed out wonder if i can write a poem out of it but my muse hasnt appeared yet.. thanks for the wonderful review as always my friend

[Stella Armour]

I am quite happy when my muse disappears because then i get a good night's sleep; for some unknown reason i can only write poetry at night and then my must keeps me awake with new lines and phrases.

now i understand

[Joltara]

breaks are good and so is your poem. sometimes you lose the muse but the returns, or you find a new one
never without for long!

[sette]

that is so true thanks for the wonderful review

[Pete]

we're no good to anyone else if we're not well ourselves. we all need to decompress occasionally. spend some time doing what we enjoy to get back in touch with ourselves and forget everything else for a bit. then the muse will return ...

[sette]

definitely the muse has returned thanks for the words of encouragement

Between eight & ten minutes zazen seated meditation twice daily is a great stress buster and of course it is so very important to find time for the self...Glad you wrote this sette....

Even God rested on the seventh day.
Rest and relaxation help re-create us.
Valuable advice!

We don't work now but still need breaks
Don't wear/use sun screen never have

Enjoy your break > give you something to look back on when work gets you down
Now where shall we go next > that's enough stress for me now
