Avocation ... Yipee!

Today’s word is “avocation” ... something a person does in addition to a principal occupation, especially for pleasure; hobby: Our doctor's avocation is painting. (Dictionary.com)

Yippee!
What would you do for love?
What choice of avocation?
Something in art or music,
That you’d do without cessation?

Maybe you would juggle,
Or train dogs to dance,
Perhaps you’d learn the game of chess,
Or master games of chance.

Could you pull rabbits out of hats,
Or learn strange tongues to speak?
However you would spend your time,
Joy is what you’d reap.
