Great Outdoors: Poem

 Great Outdoors: Poem

It was one of these days

That called us outdoors.

The great outdoors

Sometimes beckons

Why not join the kids

On the slide that leads

Straight to the puddle of mud

Out of pure fun?

Go for the run

With the spouse!

Go outside, and surprise!

Nobody wants to be stuck indoors

Behind the locked doors.

What if it is raining

Because of the heavens,

There is something called ‘creating.’

Go to the movie,

It is always a plan B-see

You will see

And think you are outdoors,

Even when you bind another door.

I open my eyes, therefore,

I was not dreaming anymore.

I had fun in my sleep.

When I run in my dream

To you, my hon, like before.
