Vacation Time

The doc says I need a vacation
My energy just can't be rationed
Seems there's been some depletion
  leading to get-up-and-go secretion

He told me to take a few weeks
Get rid of those brain-draining leaks
Stop pushing myself so darn hard
  to become a real-life bard

So, as I bid you all adieu for a while
I hope to do up my time off in style
Ask the Missus what needs to be done
  deferring to her whip and her gun


      ~ I'll miss you, Soupers! ~
            See you in a while*




*Will be checking Soup mail, however

Always defer to a lady with a whip and gun. Words to live by. Have fun!

Gershon, To think it would ever be so. You left quite a large hole. See you on a sunny day in the Soup. -R

You will be missed. When you get back you will have to write about the whip and gun. Will there be leather and a pair of stilettos in the story?

"Deferring to her whip and her gun," Wow! Better give the Missus a hand. We'll be here when you return, Gershon. By all means, get the rest you need! Hugs, Carolyn

Gershon, take the time you need to rejuvenate my friend. I am doing the same until inspiration returns. I have only written one poem in seven months. I will miss you and look forward to your return. Take care and God bless. xxoo
