The 'Poem A Day' Project ~ Day 149 Poem by Flying Lemming

I lay on a beach, feeling warm and tanned
Surrounded by gentle waves and golden sand
A smile on my face and a cool drink in my hand
Relaxed and happy and feeling grand
Just laying out in the healing Sun
Filled with joy and peace and fun
No boss, no brats, no anyone
Like true serenity has begun
Beautiful views wherever I Look
The scent of food starting to cook
Escaping away into a good book
The most wonderful break I ever took

My alarm rings beside my head
I drag myself out of my bed
I pull the curtain to one side
It’s cold and still dark outside
The rain down the window streams
Why cant life be more like dreams
