Need a break!

Need a break!

Am feeling distressed
And not at my best -
Need to go somewhere
To unwind and just rest.

Fed up with the rain
Going to book a plane,
Need to go somewhere
To unclutter my brain.

Have packed my case
Sunglasses for face,
Must not forget sun cream
And a tube of toothpaste.

But now hear me groan
Sand is Pebble and stone!
I now want to turn
Around and go home.

This place is too busy
I’m all in a tizzy!
My pulse rate has doubled
And making me dizzy.

The suns’ burnt my skin -
It’s making me sting.
The Mozzies are biting
And I’m really itching.

I’ve been on some trips;
Left waiters some tips.
Now need to go home
For my own fish ‘n’ chips!

Am feeling distressed
And not at my best.
Needing to go back home
Very quick for a rest.
