Why Bother?

Why bother getting up in the morning?
Why bother going to bed at night?
Why bother eating meals during the day?
Why bother giving people their pay?
Why bother doing anything at all

Why bother writing this poem?
Why bother cutting the lawn?
Why bother reading a book?
Why bother caring about how you look?
Why do we bother doing anything at all

Why do we bother with another?
Why do we bother fighting with our brother?
Why do we bother doing anything at all?
The reason why we bother is because,
God gave us it all to bother with


Joanne Kennedy November 1998
