How would my last day at work be?
I hope it would be the culmination of a career satisfactory
Of one of the most storied chapters of my life, it would signal the end
I hope the day does not come sooner than I intend..
*
I hope my professional life is not derailed
By deteriorating health, I hope I don’t fail
To accomplish my goals because of physical limitations
I hope my last work day is not in such a situation
*
Sometimes burnout imminent appears
And being forced to leave my profession prematurely I fear
But when things are going right, I have no desire to leave
My last day at work would be one of contentment, I believe
*
My work is such an integral part of me
Without it I would lose my identity
I hope in my professional life the last day
Is currently decades away
Passion...unbridled
