These Are My JOTtings, Part #2

Busy Days

Busy days can challenge us
to find a sure foothold.
Busy days are often thus
to make us feel quite old.

Busy days can come and go,
but often leave a mark.
Busy days declare it's so.
Just stop ourselves, and park.

Busy days are not so much
a choice, that we would choose,
but busy days keep us in touch
with health, that we can lose.

Busy days need help from One,
Who always has our rest.
Busy days remind each son
to shelter through each test.
