ALL SET
Running late but at least I am all set in my seat,
Good to go, without worries with my travelling kit,
Still with loads to do and places to go, but all is fine,
I can finish today's appointments with this awesome smile of mine!Though it's also hard to make a poem using one hand,
My other's holding a very tasty ice candy, superbly not bland,
I should finish it first, but no, I have to let my thoughts float too
Because, if I won't, they might just go!And so as the multitasker that is me,
Who can't stop the elated feeling of jubilee,
That for quite sometime I had a work I am very proud,
To make something for Him, for myself and for the overwhelming crowd!How I hope I will not have a verbal diarrhea,
My anxiety won't result to any further dilemma,
Nothing but fun and enjoyment in both learning and teaching,
Will I embody not just in speech but in living!So help me, G, as I soar high and soar with You,
That though I know my limits, I'm still super good to go,
With whatever decisions I will have to make, please be with me,
Though some of them my Papi is not very happy!Still I am very grateful that you have made them grow,
With lapses, but, their lives are slowly letting Yours show
That even if stumbling, indecisive, their love's more supreme
Supporting, understanding, reprimanding but topped with sweet cream!And now as I travel to my next appointment,
Without eating my lunch but with a stomach-filled of contentment,
Thank you very much, G, that thou hast enamoured me,
To be all set and smiling gleefully!11:41-12:00, MONDAY, 041717
