Dance naked in a stray sunbeam.
Run through the forest like
Some wild being from ancient myth.
Believe only in those who believe in you,
And refuse to acknowledge everyone else.
Lie in a bower of fresh daisys,
Whiling away the hours of a lazy afternoon.
These are the days made for relaxation
And recreation,
For the resting of the body and the soul.
This is the day that the Lord has made,
And my soul rejoices in it.
Here is a time made for lovers
And old friends.
In this place, with these smiling faces,
I shall make my home.
A sweeter life than this never was known
By mere man before.

"If you can't annoy somebody, there's little point in writing."
--Kingsley Amis

reminds me of my happiest days, I like it

There are enough colours in the world,
To paint your own dreams,
You won't get them,
Till you try.
