A Day Off

What is happening
How can this be
I am having a day off just for me

This was not accidental
I looked and planned
The calendar I scanned

But now it is here 
The freedom I feel
I nearly want to do a cartwheel

Where will we go
I think I know 
Out to the sea
Oh what glee

Off on the train
Weather forecast says it will rain
I don't care
Just get me some sea air

Breezy sea wind
Cutting and biting
This will be exciting

Coffee and cakes are part of the treat
We can sit and eat
New people and experiences we will meet 

At the end of the day
Uplifted and happy
Satisfied and thrilled 
Home we will go
To the routine we know

A day off
