On a Perfect Day
We sleep til 9
No Alarm Clocks
No ringing phones
No cares
No worries
The kids make breakfast
And
Even clean their mess
No raised voices
No sibling rivalry
We pack a picnic lunch
We load up the car
We head for the dock
We board the boat
And
We set sail
Headed for nowhere
Just out into the wide blue yonder
Just the stir of giggles
Smiles across all their faces
Laying flatly on chairs lined about the boat
No one even cares what the other is talking about
Simple and carefree is what this day is all about
The sun is nearly setting
The wind is picking up
It’s time to set sail for the return trip home
The smell of the crisp clean ocean tugs at our noses
Makes us long for what we’ve just gotten
We hit dry land
Happy but sad to be back again
A beautiful sunset
A perfect ending
To
A perfect
Day
