Adrenaline

by Elisabeth Barstowe — Read all 441 poems by Elisabeth Barstowe

Sometimes there is no mug of coffee big enough to prepare for the day ahead. From 0-100 in 0.5 seconds. That was my day at work. One never gets bored doing social work. The legal aspects of it keep you on your toes and the intellect stimulated at all times, while the lifes of your clients humble you and make you feel grattitude that you get to ease burdens so that clients can focus on getting back on their feet again. Being a Jack of all trades and knowing what support mechanisms are available in society and being able to direct a client to the right support is also extremely rewarding! I have the best job in the world!

Poem Artwork

 
Adrenaline kicks in,
feet off the ground,
lift off to magic worlds,
dancing on the edge,
directing traffic towards 
a smooth flow.

Humble pie served in
big slices today,
with a big dollop 
of cool whip on 
the side.

Tears of grattitude find 
their way out from 
time to time,
when receipt comes in,
that difference is made,
that family will sleep 
better tonight.

Being able to help out those in need is the most wonderful feeling there is. I spent many years doing volunteer and community service and the joy you felt in your heart after being able to help others is priceless.
