Holidays

Holidays! What's that?
You said it was fun and lots of pleasure
Now, all I have managed to date
Is to spend a treasure.

I bought new clothes,
Tickets to the distant land,
Tinted my hair and brows
And my family is going round the bend.

They keep telling me
"Mom don't take so much!"
Since I pack for them and for me
I'll get blamed anyway-so I leave a half

But what should I do to keep them happy
and myself out of the fire?
Perhaps one day I'll do what I want
and tell them to take their own attire!

Or better still leave them behind,
Leave everyone where they are,
Take a holiday on my own,
Somewhere - very far.

Love it. As kids, we had our own little suitcases. It might work.

===All mothers should take one whole month vacation every semester.===

"Holidays" delivers the message and makes the true picture of all mothers. It is the emotion of reality described under the beat of the soul.

I Salute the Author of "Holidays".
