Road To No Where

Thoughts drift off to tropic isles...
Our private world, our paradise;
We dance beneath the swaying palms...
Like anemones we fall and rise.

'Neath azure waves I'm beckoned
By a mystic water world;
Do I dare? Am I so bold?
I dive where waves are deepest swirled.

What is this place? What joy is here!
Why have I just now entered
This realm of friendly folk and saucy stroke
Where bubbles keep us centered?

No madness, all is gladness
As I swim beneath the sea,
Discovering Atlantis
With a newborn clarity.

This new life so refresing
Soothes a work world weary soul
As Neptune with his trident
Smiles upon the whole.

Ahh, wondrous peace comes easily
Amongst the reeds and rushes...
Not silence but a beauteous song
Now comes to me...then hushes.

A sound comes forth intruding on
My reverie, my dreams
...It breaks the spell, it dashes all
My hopes, my plans, my schemes.

"YOU'VE GOT MAIL!!!!"

Oh, damn the mail! I grouse and groan
Within my very heart.
I hate that voice, it's not my choice...
It gives me such a start!

I lay my dreams aside
And try my best to hide
The ending of another dream
Awakened by AOL's scream. (--Groan--)
