Ode to the Gundai

01-pool-with-floaties-lgn-74593533

The boys gather round
They’re all on the ground
They move in seamless sway

Their laughs fill the air
With casual flare
In days of endless play.

I try to keep up
No drink in my cup
I long for small respite

The pool water splash
A sip, then a dash
I long for gentle night.

I do love each one
Such days filled with fun
The memories explode

The beds are a mess
A slight bit of stress
Then laundry my mode.

A walk then a ride
They gather outside
My head is in a twirl

Then dinner is fed
And maybe to bed
My wine a swish and a swirl.

The countdown is on
In three days they’re gone
Their cousins feel the pain

Then fresh beds are made
The chaos does fade
Til all begins again.
