Ode to the Weekend

Hurrah! Today is Friday, the best day of the week
I can’t believe I made it; I feel so weak.
I think I’ll go home and put up my feet,
Maybe open the windows and listen to the birds tweet.
On Saturday, I’ll sit by the pool, careful to spray on some deet,
And later I may take the family out to eat.
Sunday, I’ll reward my plants with a well-earned treat
And take a shovel and spread on some peat.
All too soon Monday will come
And I will be forced to repeat my feat.
