I died last night. Much like the wilted petals of an old bouquet of roses, I crumbled. My spirit lingered, then disappeared into the mist, and scattered my soul. Floating in limbo, I reached out, seeking those I remembered, and found myself lost, with those I had long since forgotten.

Innocence reigns, in the eyes of a child
They watch, bewildered, awed and beguiled
Asking about, the man with the hat
Wondering why, he is dressed quite like that
Why the sky is blue, and the grass is green
And every other color, left in between
Catching the sun, as it lights up their face
Taking it in, with seraphic grace
Oh how I wish I could see what they see
Shine on, dear child, who never was me
Live out your life, explore your dreams
Capture the beauty, of every moonbeam
Race to the morning, rise with the sun
Always remember, you’re second to none

Shimmering hoarfrost
Embracing life, melts away
In the warm sunlight

Could this day be any worse for those
Who awaken in morning, preferring to doze
Only to find out, it’s Monday indeed
The weekend is over, this we concede
But wait, it gets worse, how can that be
Surely this Monday, is pure treachery
Disguised as a start, of things yet to come
We always believe, boy are we feeling dumb
So, on this day, when we all convene
We’ll fill up on baked goods, and tons of caffeine
Show him who’s boss, and should he rebuff
We’ll fire this Monday, enough is enough
