Gershon Wolf Poet Couplet

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
