SATURDAY
S aturday’s like any day
‘A nd why is that’ I hear you say
T he reason is - may I explain?
U nequalled as my favourite day,
R etirement changed the state of play
D ays then all became the same
A nd now I shout hip, hip, hooray
Y es, every day is Saturday’.

So true Michael, every day is Saturday for some of us, we have earned them.
Yes, you've earned them. What, you're not doing any lawyer-ing on Saturdays?!
All through our working lives we looked forward to providing our minds and bodies with a weak-end after five days of pure joyous toil.
And now what do we have? Weak-ends for the rest of our days?
No way! i hear you say. These Saturdays are the days of harvest. Gathering in the richness of all life has reigned upon us.
What of Sundays I ask?
Very well constructed Michael
What a week you've had?
I always feel like I’ve stumbled into an upbeat world when I read your poems. Such light relief 😌
HI UNCLE STEVE ~ Saturdays are aIways a great relief & a great escape for Angela and I ! Its 2pm in NZ and ANGELA is sleeing off a good days sail ! We both love our Jobs and happy with our salaries and of course we are both still young enough to have some energy left for the WE ! My PARENTS (although retired) still cherish the WEEKEND as something SPECIAL !
Blessings to YOU & YOURS
Love ANGELA & BRIAN 🧡🧡🧡🧡
P.S. Good rhyming ACROSTIC (A !)
