Hobby's Boundaries

Jasmine F. Garganera 2008 (Cebu)

Free verse
We all have our favorite hobby
When bored they make us happy
But when it becomes our work
We might run out of perks

I like to sing
But critics make my heart sink
I like to dance
But the audience won't let me have a chance

This choice makes me want to scream
But it is my only dream
That has now become my nightmare
Not a good idea so you should be aware

About this poem

This poem is made to showcase why a hobby of ours should not be used as full-time work. Because if we ever get tired of work there would be nothing left for us to enjoy.
