Paradise Cocoon

Paradise Cocoon 
image: Parke Harrison


Monday dawns the sun forewarns the start of a brand new week 
Tempted to abstain, stay here, remain 
Marooned in my feather cocoon, my brain leaks
Dreams, sweet in my oasis,
Cosy and warm, drinking champagne, 
If only dreams were my life's true status!

I'm forced to peek,take on the week,
Snatch a sleep throughout the five day streak,
Then Friday yawns and Saturday dawns,
I stretch and relax, weekend begins, time to chillax 
Cosy and warm in my cocoon drinking champagne 
Again In my dreams, my paradise, 
Where I reign!
