bed in summer
Another whirlwind weekend behind me; summer Reading and working lots of extra hours to cover 3 weeks of other folks' vacations has worn me down. My vacation to Germany can't get here soon enough! It is sad that I get super pumped about going home and getting into pjs and bed to do some reading before I crash? "Bed in Summer" In winter I get up at night And dress by yellow candle-light. In summer, quite the other way, I have to go to bed by day. I have to go to bed and see The birds still hopping on the tree, Or hear the grown-up people's feet Still going past me in the street. And does it not seem hard to you, When all the sky is clear and blue, And I should like so much to play, To have to go to bed by day? --Robert Louis Stevenson
