School holidays!
Sit around in my pyjamas, laze about all day
Wallowing in simplicity while the days just fade away.
Wishing every single school day could be a lot like this -
Doing absolutely nothing, what perfect heavenly bliss!
No teachers or some homework, just hanging out with my mates,
Or busy doing nothingness, staying up extremely late.
Raid the cupboards and the fridge; eat all the crisps that I call brunch;
Devour my breakfast in the afternoon, way way way past lunch!
Watch scary films in the afternoon with the curtains pulled,
Still awake at 4.00 a.m. , scared of what I saw – whatever it was called!
Lay ins, stay ins, day ins, beats Maths and History -
Would rather be bone idle, laze about and watch a mystery.
Gone now for the next few weeks are English and P.E.,
Would rather just be indolent and watch rubbish on T.V.!
I’ve lost track of all the days and time, knee deep in apathy,
But got to admit while school is out, I enjoy some lethargy!
Fed up with neatly ironed uniform, the whole curriculum,
Enjoying the weekly shopping – even with my Mum!
But when September arrives, I’ll have to be more enthusiastic -
My batteries will have recharged and school won’t be so drastic!
