When not slaved to school
work I rush to do all of
my favorite things.
All at once in a
mad multitasking-fun-storm
of pleasure-chaos.
I was just sampling
Spotify tracks, playing my
iPod and writing.
While backing up my
music collection, planning
dinner and sewing.
And I thought maybe
I should make more coffee and
print my homework.
Night times bring about frighT.
I am brave so I
Get up to face hiM.
He enslaves me every nighttimE
Though I break free when the sunriseS!
Locked in, I should count my blessings
cooking, cleaning, playing, having fun
recalling good olden rememberings
the things we could not do on the run
we always had a 'to do list' gun
whose bullets never seemed to end
this opportunity is a godsend
so let's make the best use of it
till from corona virus, we defend
and step out fearless to restart titbit.
Too much free time now
I wish there was some more then
day in and day out
Free Time
It is time for free.
Let us ramble and play,
And visit the lovely birds.
Look! They are active and free,
And glean crops from corn fields.
Then have bath in cool boon,
And take nap on boughs at noon.
Look! They are neat and gay,
And greet rovers on limbs sway,
And sing all the day.
It is a moment for glee.
Let us roam by streams in green-lands,
To enjoy our time with gentle bland,
And rustle of dancing leaves,
And babble of leaping weaves,
When they dandle the banks' caves,
And dabble the dapper geese,
Who came from distant land,
To spend their free time
Day too long been pilin' up
so when you smile me up
and down to my bones
ta hell with the phones and loans
groans and moans trump hands down.
Where ya been, outa town?
Who cares those eyes, oh my
pecs and gluts, ceps and thighs...
enfold me embrace me
hold on tight and face me
naked as you are in
unabashed tenderness
tongue flicks enmeshed with
grips kneading our flesh
in togetherness despite all
we feel at one with god's
creation.
I'm doing just fine without you
my days have never been more full
working ten hours, sleeplessness
yeah, I'm doing just great
the hardest part is figuring out
what to do with all this free time
I've gotten real good at solitare
crossword puzzles leave me breathless
I can sing the lyrics to all sad songs
I've even written a few of my own
I'm donating clothes to the shelter
this diet isn't one I would choose
and I can always pick up tomorrow
with the things left for me to do
I'm doing just fine without you
you don't need to worry bout me
don't let it bother your conscience
cause I'm gonna be just swell
Free time!
Celebration,
Relaxation,
My friends,
It's our summer!
Congregation,
Music, flowers,
Funny jokes
And gifts -
For our Mamas,
Free ways,
Free games
And happy days -
It's our pleasure!
Have a good time
And the rest
Free measure!
