We all need a vacation once in a while
A rest from the complexities of life
A time to let go of all our responsibilities
And focus on our well-being instead of strife
You may not be able to get away
Perhaps your wallet holds more dust than cash
But you can still take a vacation in your mind
The travel is cheap, and you are there in a flash
Close your eyes and let your mind wander
To a tropical beach or a mountain resort
You can stay in the finest of accommodations
An imaginary vacation has no budget to support
Ski down that Aspen slope
dig your toes in the warm Caribbean sand
Get a relaxing massage from a hunk named Sven
Do what you want; your mind is in command
Take yourself on that vacation
Chart your course and let your mind go
For a few moments a day, shut out reality
And maybe even achieve that after vacation glow
