Three Day Weekend
For those who work, a three day weekend
Feels like a reward,
The culmination of a goal
That they’ve been working toward.
It’s just one extra day and yet,
It feels like so much more,
A chance to catch up on the things
On workdays, they’d ignore.
But even for the unemployed
And, too, retirees,
A holiday on Monday
Somehow really seems to please.
So happy weekend, one and all;
Enjoy this little break.
Forgetting why the day is free, though,
Would be a mistake.
