Changing Places
“A change is
as good as a rest”
they say-
a one click ticket to paradise
“ohhhh sooo verrry nice”-
a change of scene
a break
with the routine-
a dreams DO come true trip
going for a snip
of the price-
“a slice of real life”
five star
or four,
forget the wolf
at the door
for one week
or two
until there are none-
no wolves
no bears
no foxes
no hares
but
meanwhile in paradise
who really cares?
