The Road Beckons

Hear the road calling? It says “Come away with me. Adventure awaits!”

But I’ve got work that just can’t wait,

Work unfinished will be work late.

The boss will be mad as a hornet’s hive,

I’ve got to work, to get out alive”

“I can’t, I just can’t.” I cried,

“I just can’t let all this work slide.”

The road kept calling, loud and clear

“Come with me, adventure is near.”

A beautiful sunrise, the ocean wide,

The wide majestic mountain divide.

The forest green, streams running clear,

Wide-open spaces that give me great cheer.

To work too soon, I rue my fate

“No worries,” says the road. “For you, I will wait.”
