Musings – Cabin Fever

So where do you say You're going away To spend some time Relax all day? “You're going where? Did I just hear? With boats and planes And high airfare?”

“Well I thought

That you should

Just be knowing

About the place

That we are going!

 

“It’s ten times better

Than your place!”

He said it with

A poker face!

 

“We have a boat

We have a lake

Each night we get

A giant cake!

 

“And singers come

To our delight

And entertain us

Every night!”

 

“Oh yeah?” she cried

“The place we go

You never heard of

You don’t know!

 

“It’s on a mountain

Oh so high

We breathe the freshness

Of the sky

 

“We have our own

Ski lift chair!

The only way

To get up there

And breathe the fresh, clean

Mountain air!

 

“There’s steaks and drinks

When it gets dark

We got our own

Amusement park!”

 

And each one bragged

And each one shared

The silly things

Of what they cared

 

Of fleeting toys

And passing things

The transitory joy

It brings

 

“And then they smile

And they go

Thinking their friend

Does not know…

They sneak back to

Their bungalow!

 

And sit, relaxed

Play with their kid

Talk to their wife

‘Bout thing they did

 

And share a coffee

And a blatt

And step inside

When it gets hot

 

And in their minds

They both do know

That there’s no better

Place to go

The good old

Heimish

Bungalow!
