Weekend State of Mind

..thanks Eros for the inspiring pic xo

I'm in a weekend

          state of mind

have no concept of time

          or space

just know it's going to be

    an easy pace

like waves rolling on the surf

flowing towards nothing

 but  a retreat

easy breezy thinking,

              and repeat

dip my toes in slowly, 

feel the breeze on my face

              chilled drink 

              and a soft comfy chair so sumblime

      would you care to dance me

                             in the sand

who knows,

together perhaps

             a castle we can build

                         to touch the sky

The poem starts with "I'm in a weekend" giving the sensation of limited time, yet freedom of no other type. then the poem speaks of things that are done in the easy pace, the weekend pace. all slow .

The poem includes numerous sensual situations : "easy pace" reminds heart pace , "like waves..flowing towards nothing" , "easy breezy", " chilled drink " ..

and to top it, you add a partner to the crime "together perhaps" build a castle of sand that reaches the sky . a fun task I may say, one that can burn all the weekend . Leading me to the understanding that weekends are meant to be spend with others while doing fun stuff.

Thank you for sharing such an extraordinary poem.

I love how you refer to it as 'crime', thanks so much for the great review and pausing on my page...MrKnowAll, cheeky name btw.

A very clever structure and a real good feel good poem. It has such a calming affect on one.

Deep sigh.. that's what the weekend is for. And there you are strolling on the sandy beach with nothing on your mind but putting one foot in front of the other. Enjoy every throbbing inch of your weekend. ;)

[Frieda P]

ha you've such a way with words...'throbbing inch', youch! ;-)

Thanks for the lovely pic...it was a definitively riveting inspiration.

Have a very happy weekend indeed. You're deserving. :)

Nice pace and feel, just as a weekend described within the lines. I don't know what these mythical easy going weekends are that you speak of - but they sound divine! Nicely penned!

Oh, I will post a few pics from NOLA soon. It was fun. Opened my eyes a bit, too. Eventually the trip will inspire some writing. Busy week and I'm headed to NY to pick up the man cub early in the morning for spring break. Breathe... One day I will get to chill - just like in your poem! ;)

Ha old memories from 'down the shore' as we joisey people say! Hey you'll be in the neighborhood, stop for some cheer! ;-)

Oh, I wish! I make this insane drive in one day - leave around 4 am, grab the child then turn around and head home to VA. I have a job to finish up for a client on Sunday. After this one, I'm hanging up the freelance work for a while. Burnt out!

[Frieda P]

OMG you're even more insane that I originally thought! ;-)

Making that trip in a day crazy, the things we do for our kids...! Hope you get some R&R soon, yeah I can smell you burning from here!

Are you mocking me? LOL, this is more than relatable, Frieda. This is tailored fit. Okay, I'm gonna go back to my paperwork and dream of a better place.

[Frieda P]

Yes, I wrote this specifically to mock you, dang, I forgot to put that in the author's note! Still dreaming.....?

[Androglossia]

Yep and will be for the next 5 hours:)
