SONNET 95 ESCAPING PROBLEMS
Sometimes you just want to get right away,
Escape from the problems of a hard day,
Stop and think, they’ll be there when you come back,
So escaping some real wisdom does lack.
Best way to rid us of problems we know
In this determination we must show,
That is get up and solve them one by one,
Before you know it those problems have gone.
They don’t go under the mat out of sight,
They’ll raise up their heads and give us a fright.
Face them solve them, then more will come our way,
Then only challenges come every day.
So be brave, don’t escape, overcome all,
Pick yourself up if you happen to fall.
