Limbs lie down and wait for ease,
a place to decompress
from the efforts of the day’s work.
There are moments where it seems they won’t find it,
but then it’s 3 a.m. and they feel better,
ready to stretch, ready to turn
and catch the rest that will prepare them for the morning
They are willing servants — they will trust
they can perform what they are called to do.
They’ll find new sturdiness
as they bring ease to others,
and feel their worth
in every earnest hour of honest work.
