A time to relax |
Bubbles Bursting In my bath, I started to climb Planning to spend some special time Rest and relaxation, the objective here In my hand, my Friday night beer Such a crazy week, it should be a quart Looking to create an oasis, of sort Work was insane: my bones they did ache Just a moment of my own, for heaven's sake A candle on the counter for ambiance Apples and pine, the fall burning scents A nurse's life is filled with strife Stress increased, as a mother and wife Stereo emitting my favorite tunes Dreams of filling the room with balloons Such occasions as this are seldom and few Home alone, my joy hard to subdue An hour of respite, soon to be mine My life was looking mighty fine The bath was prepped with bubbles many Thoughts of rejuvenation aplenty All worries and cares shoved to the edge No tasks would I do, my solemn pledge Vick's applied to the soft of my temples Headache be gone with all my dilemmas Slipping into the tub so very slowly My water was warm and very cozy Bubbles embraced my weary frame Suds they welcomed, calling my name My tension oozed from every pore Energy infusion the gift to restore My quiet and peace soon to be history Stolen by my a beast, my little Dimitri All comfort lost with a serious mishap An 80-pound dog jumped into my lap Gone was my haven in which to soak This is my life and that's no joke Line Count 36 |
