WEEKEND VACATION
WEEKEND VACATION
IN THE CHAIR
BY THE WATER
LISTENING TO THE WAVES
AND THE BIRDS
FLYING OVER HEAD
SWALLOWS
FLYING IN AND OUT
DOWN LOW
AND BACK UP
AGAIN
WATCHING THE
FIELD OF GRASS
WITH THE MORNING
DEW SHINING
AND FRESHLY CUT
IN MY NOSE
TREES ALL AROUND
AND THE BLUE GREY
SKY
IN THE DAY
AS IT HEATS UP
THE WONDERFUL
FRESHLY MADE MINT TEA
KEEPS ME COOL
AND REFRESHED
I HEAR ALL THE KIDS
RUNNING AND PLAYING
AND ALL THE PEOPLE
SOCIALIZING
FROM THE WARRIORS
HITTING EACH OTHER
TO THE SPINNERS WINDING
THEIR YARN
TO THE MERCHANTS
AND THE CONSTANT
WIFFS OF
THE FOOD BEING MADE
IN THE TENT
NEXT TO ME
WHILE I SHOW PEOPLE
HOW TO DRAW
A CELTIC SPIRAL
OR KEY PATTERN
LATER I HEAR
THE AXES HIT THE WOOD
AND THE FACT
NOW I KNOW HOW
TO MAKE
A VIKING WIRE NECKLACE
IF I WANT
TO THE COLD COLD
SHOWER
AND OFFER TO GO
IN THE LAKE WITH
A FRIEND
BUT TURN IT DOWN
CAUSE LAKES
AND ME
DON'T GET ALONG
SITTING DRINKING COFFEE
AND EATING A CHOCOLATE
MUFFIN IN THE MORNING
CLOSE MY EYES
AND TURN MY HEAD
UP TO THE SKY
AND
TAKE IN ALL THE SENSES
HAVE TO OFFER
EVEN WHEN
THE DRIP DRIP DRIP
OF RAIN STARTING
FALLING DOWN ON MY FACE
THERE IS NOTHING
LIKE IT
THE NATURE ALL AROUND
AND THE HARMONY
OF US
THERE HUMANITY
BLENDING
AND WITH RESPECT
AND CHILVARY
IS NOT DEAD
A KNIGHT AND DUKE
OFFERED TO CARRY
MY CHAIR BACK
AFTER WATCHING ME
DRAG IT WITH ONE HAND
SMILE
SIGH
THE CRACKLING OF
THE FLAMES
AND THE SHIFTING
OF THE WOOD
IN THE FIREPIT
WHILE FRIENDS
SING AND TELL STORIES
SHARE THEIR
BAUDY MOMENTS
AND GEEKNESS
SO DID I FEEL
LIKE I BELONGED
TO THE LADY
THAT READ MY TAROT
AND GAVE
FREE WINE
EVEN IF IT WAS
ALMOST TOO SWEET
TO DRINK
I SIPPED IT THROUGH
THE NIGHT HOURS
THEN WATCHED
THE OTHERS GATHER
THEMSELVES
AND GO TO THEIR TENTS
WITH THERE OTHERS
AND SIGH
OFF I DECIDED
TO GO
TO MINE
ALONE AS ALWAYS
YET NOT FEELING
ALONE FEELING
SO ALIVE
AND HAPPY
AND VERY RELAXED
TALKING TO PEOPLE
I DON'T NORMALLY
CHAT WITH WAS
WONDERFUL
AND HANGING
OUT WITH MY FRIENDS
I DO KNOW
EVEN BETTER
THANKS TO MY
BEST FRIEND
FOR THE MEDS
TO HELP THE
HEADACHE
GO AWAY
AND THE TEA
THAT KEEPED
ME FLOWING
AND THE OTHER
FRIEND
THAT OFFERED
WATER OVER
AND OVER CAUSE
IT WAS SO HOT!
TO ALL THE SMILES
AND NODS
AND JUST CONTENTED
BLESSED BLISS
SO WONDERFUL
I SO DO MISS
THIS
EVEN THE SERVICE
CHORES
ARE ALL WANTED
AND NOT MINDED
CAUSE I FEEL
APART OF SOMETHING
AND NOT
SEPARATED
IN THE DISTANCE
I HEAR THE CLANGING
OF THE FORGE
AND METAL
IT BEGS ME
TO GO SEE
I DON'T HOWEVER
CAUSE I GET
DISTRACTED
BY MY FRIENDS
KID WE TICKLE
AND PLAY TAG
AND GOOF AROUND
FINALLY HE
ACKNOWLEDGED ME
FOR THE END OF
THE EVENT SMILE
GOES TO SHOW
HE HAD A GOOD TIME
FROM THE JOKES
AND MEMORIES
TO THE CHANGING
OF THE KEY THROWING
AT THE ALLTHING
TO A WELL DESERVING FRIEND
TO RELEASE IT
FOR ITS ONLY SUPPOSED
TO BEEN IN HER
HANDS FOR TWO YEARS
HOWEVER
IT HAS BEEN SIX
AND GAINING
MY OWN OFFICE
WHICH WILL
MEAN I
WRITE MORE
LOL
THESE MOMENTS
ARE GREAT
EVEN AT NIGHT
DARK AND
THE ONLY BATHROOMS
ARE ALL THE
WAY ACROSS
THE FIELD AWAY
FROM CAMP
SO IN THE DARK
I GO
LOOKING AS I CAN
AND FEELING SAFE
NO WORRIES
ON MY MIND
IN THE DEEP
NIGHT SKY
THE STARS ARE ALL
SHINING BRIGHT
AND I CAN HEAR
THE BATS OVERHEAD
THEN BACK DOWN
THE TRAIL
BACK TO BED
IN THE LIGHT OF
DAWN
I GATHER
TO GO AGAIN
AND THIS TIME
I SEE THE RAVENS
CALLING TO
EACH OTHER
A GREAT WAY
TO END OUT
THE WEEKEND
ONLY DOWN FALL
IS I HAVE
TONS OF BUG BITES
LOL
IT WAS SO
NEEDED
AND NOTHING BUT
LOVE AND FRIENDS
ALL AROUND.
