It's late,
I'm tired
and
the day's not over yet!
but here's how it should be
a glass of whiskey
(no ice thank you and make it a double!!)
sitting here
or maybe here
then a nice hot bath
with lots of rose scented oil
and
the fire lit, of course
or maybe here
(but this would need the maid to lay out my night robe
and I don't want to have to see anyone tonight!)
so back to here
for a long soak!
for a long soak!
then into this chair
to do my homework
for the next 40 minutes
(supposed to lie on the floor but my back is too sore!!)
then I will climb in here
where, the plain simplicity and beauty
will allow me to sleep...
perchance to dream, of a better world
or maybe, I will curl up here with a good book
(The Holiday by Erica James is the current one)
for just a few minutes
before dropping of into a dreamless slumber
and so begins the perfect evening!!!!!!
Goodnight
