Lying Down…

I love lying down,

it helps that I’m good at it.

~

Darn good.

~

A black belt.

~

The Don.

~

My skills were honed,

on the birthday party circuit.

Dead Lions game.

Undefeated,

between age six and thirty eight.

~

As a student I took it on,

to a whole other level.

I didn’t get up for three years,

still got a degree.

A Desmond on my course,

First Class Honours in lying down.

~

Now I’m a parent,

I need to set an example.

Hard work I tell them,

is the only way to go.

Be active I implore,

you’ll have a better life.

~

Once they’ve gone though,

It doesn’t take long.

I stretch out my legs,

and wiggle my toes.

~

A satisfied sigh,

makes its way to the surface.

I’m back where I belong,

having a nice lie down.

Lying down is an expensive hobby. Please consider upgrading your subscription (free subscriptions are ok as well), or making a small donation, to keep me horizontal 😬.
