Holiday Eternal



Time has lost its meaning
Sun and moon just blend
Each day is vacation
Startings without end.

There is nothing scheduled
No deadlines to meet
Walk is a meander
Rest is easy feat.

Totally at leisure
Not a thing to do
Paint is slowly drying
Grass is growing too.

No external pressure
Life's a gentle groove
Let it be "sans souci"
There's nothing to prove.

Holiday eternal
Celebrate the coup
Heaven is residence
Freedom makes it true.
