A Day Trip

Posted for prompts from Mad Kane (“vacations”) and Totally Optional Prompts ("trips to foreign lands").

A Day Trip
(A Limericked Snort on a Trip Too Short)

I just returned from a vacation,
For a bit of relaxation –
Stepping out
Without a doubt –
Simple brain evacuation.

I drift off, right here at work,
Though the boss is known to lurk –
Nodding off,
No cause to scoff –
If I don’t, I’ll go berserk.

(Although I am self-employed, I can still remember those corporate days.)

Really cute! That's exactly how I felt upon returning to the office after my vacation in May!
