A Fortnight's Good Intention Poem by Sylvia Frances Chan

A Fortnight's Good Intention

I just got back from a visit to the sick
at Antonia, revalidating center
I haven't even started skating yet
with my car
Before the freeze covers the streets I'm going home,

Visit the sick again tomorrow
when the sun shines, all icy parts of the car are defrosted
then I will go again to pay a visit to the sick

I will spend my fortnight's holidays
to pay a visit to the sick
these sick have no other relatives at home
few others and I do that in our fortnight holidays
each of us on our turn
