The weekend is here

It’s time to unwind

An occasion to relax

And get out of the grind

 

48 hours of bliss!

I’m excited beyond measure

I’m going to fill it up

With recreation and leisure

 

But I’ll make it productive

Maybe head to the gym

Or a walk in the park

Or go for a swim

 

I’ll watch the sunrise

And learn something new

I’ll cook myself dinner

I’ve a longing for stew

 

I’ll meet with friends

And spend a happy afternoon

Reading a book

In my little cocoon

 

Oh, the weekend feels like

Its going to last forever

I can do what I want

Whenever, wherever!

 

I’ll head to bed now

And awake early and bright

I’ve so many plans

Must wake up by first light!

I was up the next afternoon

Overslept quite a lot

Lazed around for a while

Put on the coffee pot

 

I tackled the laundry

And made a grocery run

Cooked and cleaned

Then watched a movie for fun

 

I watched another movie

And then another one

I made myself some food

Then watched some reruns

 

Alas! Before I knew it

It was Monday morning

The weekend flew by

Without any warning

The next time someone asks

“What plans for the weekend”

I’ll say “Ah nothing much

Just catching up with an old friend!”
