A squirrel booked a spa day, fed up with all the treetop riff-raff;
he stretched out in our garden mud, declaring it a “mineral luxury bath.”
Snowman was invited to a brand-new spa
Who wants to go? He said, not me, not me
He was dragged in there by his cousin Maw
And promptly found a goblet that was quite comfy
It once held martinis, the spa owner said
It was designed by a snowman named Devil Day
You can get cozy and relax, as if it is your bed
Snowman liked it so much, he was there the next day
War, you piece of my monotony !
Why don't you talk to my focus ?
Do you find yourself so firmly feeble
in tracing such locus,
where I nest my 'eagle' ?
Enduring your best
slowly at my behest
ain't the only slovenly spa
Resurrected by no guilt,
yet perfected by qualms
falling still short of bourgeoisie, napalms
I don't kill you poor thought
For you wish me distraught
Don't you dare push like kindergarten
Let me break my monotony first
To your down-quarks, much later..
I'll talk, then ! Slyly quenched thirst
Letting eagles fence mind
and sand define the border,
Calling ‘succinct’ the grind
and not what went harder
is that gradient all try
from the gym to the jungle, asking
where not ! why not why?
Anyway its an agony past prime
For a war, for a “monotony”
Let's argue to never fuel
another dime !
Ah... time to pamper myself.
What's not to love about spa day.
Got a special date tonight.
Wordku: 5-7-5 words
Morey was thrilled because the cheese spa was coming.
The refrigerator made happy sounds, it was fairly humming.
The cheese was melting ahead of time in the microwave.
Morey was the first family member in; he is extremely brave.
This is not only comfortable, but tasty too he told the rest.
There was cheddar, provolone, but he liked the blue cheese best.
He scooted aside for his brothers, and his sister began to wail.
They have the best seats she whined; a complainer without fail.
I watched you walk away that night
Then later had a dream
We were sitting in a sauna
Wearing robes while enshrouded in steam
Then one thing led to another
And soon it all quickly progressed
'Til we were only left standing enshrouded
I think you can figure the rest
That’s the best spa of all the sparrow said.
She hopped right in, with her cousin Fred.
Fred hopped back out, It’s too hot! He lamented.
She loved a margarita bath, she felt fermented.
The mud facial on her face soon slid down.
It rolled into the bubbles, which now turned brown.
My drink! Yelled the lady of the house, she was not happy.
“No big deal!” tweeted out my sparrow friend, we called her Sappy.
Rose petals for your bed
Down pillow for your head
Silk and satin for your sheets
Soft wool slippers for your feet
Sleep in peaceful, silent bliss
May your dreams be of a kiss
From a fairy or a prince so fine
Watching o'er your dreaming mind
And sprinkling notes of music fair
Into your ears where they will flare
Up into songs of deepest love
That never fade or know thereof
My life
I wake up make my breakfast
Grab a knife to spread my butter onto my toast
I go up stairs on roast my sister
I pray that I don’t get a blister.
I go to brush my teeth
To make sure they are squeaky clean
Then I go to lean on the sofa
Then I make my self a tea ahh
I turn on the tv to see ikea is closing in my area “what nah”
I need to treat my self to a spa.

The
Spa
when used
be confused
by most first-timers
yet not a case for old-timers.
As timetables vary per clients customary,
employees plan on weekly, shifts expected, with clientele care to be primary.

The waiter recommended electrons
But they wanted something to get wrecked on --
She drank her protein shake
He picked at his uranium snake --
Then ordered a ginormous peletron
I wish my love a peaceful Shangri-La
Where I can save her best from daily cares.
A warm place where winter never dares
And my heart smiles to serve as in a spa.
Come enjoy our whole bean bliss;
where bean-sky-lifts
flavored dreams, sky high
or pick your own beans
on your way up;
yes, we grow it all
on one mega-bush.
Saucer dining jettison’s
flavors into stellar space-brews,
captivating to the senses,
tantalizing the taste buds,
teasing the palate into
sheer mocha-toffee delight.
Cinnamon-ginger-spiced-cherry,
will ring karmic bells;
go ahead, hum-happy.
Luxuriate in our eleven-bean wrap
take a seaside meditation lesson
with, Yogi-Bean-nanda.
We’ve got the world’s only
pin-wheel-driven bean grinders;
drink it,
wear it,
swim in it,
we’ve also got the world’s only
tea-cup boats.
Now, how’s that for a
unique adventure?
”You Can Become Dreamy In A Spa”
(by Rainbow ?? Promise)
Soft Erie-like musical strains -
Guitars, flutes, banjos, violins
Float in the Air with rhythmic flare.
With rhythmic flare you lay bare,
Soft lights, candle lit, flicker there,
As Erie-like strains drone on.
As Erie-like strains drone on
Facial being done, masques run
Dripping, nostrils squeezing, squeeze.
Nostrils squeezed, can you breathe?
Hot chemical-filled towel like a wreath
Placed in triangular form, chin to nose
Triangular form chin to nose
Droning, Recurring soft music you pose,
in solitaire,
O, a Spa can be Erie like a Morgue!
