Dreaminess: Seeking Relief

Take me home!
I’ve had enough!
Too tired to steer,
Too sleepy to see clearly;

Yet, no time for rest,
So much yet to do,
Before I can
Really relax,

Dreaming of relief,
While steaming ahead,
Stumbling a little
And longing for bed;

Planning a holiday
In my mind,
Not knowing when
Or how to unwind,

Too exhausted to decide,
Too weary to say,
It must be time
To remember how to play;

It starts easily enough,
Form the toes it wiggles,
Turns into a dance,
A silly jiggle,

Cavorting to the kitchen,
Giggly and fizzy,
Feeling lazy and dizzy
But nonetheless getting busy;

Cooking and cleaning furiously,
Working up to a tizzy,
Even though I’m reeling
From fatigue and confusion
And I’d rather be dozing.
