Maybe I can try
as the weekend once again
arrives this morning
to capture something of the
hallowed place it takes me to
confirming the choice is right
Had a weekend of days enlongated to fit
five of the then actually, welcome to whit
which I'd planned for myself thinking of it
as a rest is needed sometimes
Planned nothing save being the best of me
five days to do little but lounge and be free
which all of you workers will know and agree
as a rest is needed sometimes
And so to Friday
for a switch-off come lunchtime
into the weekend
And breathe deep, relax
soak up the fact that this is
deliciously mine
And so it will be
to use wisely and enjoy
pending the new week
The light outside intense today
rain threatened but despite
all that I am yet buoyant
now the mornings here from night
A word of explanation is
quite needed there of course
and I am happy to oblige
for feelings of remorse
As today, a Friday morning
a long weekend it starts for me
with reunion long awaited
of two friends flamboyantly
So another week passes
and reaches its end
with two days of rest
waiting there like a friend
Arms open wide with
a smile on its face
it welcomes you in
and slows down the pace
Makes you a coffee
or a hot cup of tea
relaxing as always
and totally free
Guess I’ll just have to lie in the sun
then, ‘cos it’s out there and I am not
And it’s still the weekend and the next
few days look like they’re going to be hot
