I wake… no rush
no beep
no buzz
no meetings
no emails…
just…
because
Bacon sizzling
egg yolks
slightly runny
my breakfast
so warm
on this calm
sunny morning
No commute
No rush
no schedule
in sight
I meander
I wander…
this day
feels
just right
No tasks
to complete
no deadlines
to meet…
just…
stretching legs
stretching time
in the warm
summer heat
Lunch in the shade
with family
with friends
checkers
then chess
toss a ball
then a snooze…
I’ve got plenty
of time
may this day
never end
No dash
no clock
no hands
prodding
me on
just laughter
just chatter
and games
played
on the lawn
Still…
no rush…
just…
a long
lazy roam
No need
for a cause
no need
to go home
I follow
the breeze
let my mind
take a stroll
no calls
no demands
just…
a day
uncontrolled
A book
calls
my name
as daylight dims
its pages
comfort me…
I’m safely
tucked in
No worries
to release
no thoughts
to unload
just…
sinking…
so…
softly…
in sweet
slumber mode
