Evening benediction

Take what you need and leave the rest

Peace to all you didn’t get done today
because you were tired, couldn’t focus
or really bring yourself to care

Peace to the extra work later
the slow building of pressure

And peace to the day
when you rally and catch up

It will come, it always does

Meanwhile, darling
