Easter landed, what a blast
Home on Holy Thursday then headed out fast
Pulled an all-nighter into Good Friday
As predicted, doing it my way…
Had a slumber, went out to lunch
Sharon & I had quite a munch
Trundled home & couldn’t settle
Too excited, in fine fettle…
Saturday morning, awake at dawn
Jumped out of bed without a yawn
Destination: Butler’s Chocolate Café
On a sunny but showery day…
Caffeinated, hit the shops
Battling the bustle, my mood suddenly drops
Hit the hill that leads to mine
Home again, not feeling so fine…
Get the feeling I’m living on Death Row
Plunge into misery, let the tears flow
Call a friend & he stops by
Lends me a shoulder on which I cry…
Many coffees, too many fags
Pull myself together, pack my bags
Order a cab, head across the city
To my sister’s, feeling so shitty…
Enjoy a few nightcaps, ready for bed
The clocks roll forward while I sleep for the dead
Wake in the morning in time for Mass
We pray & we sing as 2 hours pass…
After the service, I am feeling renewed
I return to my sister’s & we eat lots of food
Thinking of Frank, his birthday today
Away with the angels, forever & a day…
We take a long walk, the weather is fine
Feeling so grateful for this family of mine
Rest & recovery, bereavement & healing
I’ll bounce back soon, I’ve got the feeling!
