Escape

a beautiful little mountain retreat
a perfect place to get away
leave our jobs and stress behind
while we make up games to play

pretending we are kids again
laughing and fooling around
kissing on the love-seat
after turning the lights down

snuggling under a blanket
in front of the fireplace
the fire light reflected
on ivory satin lace

talk about a great escape
when you can leave it all behind
and act on all the fantasies
we think up in our minds
