Fridays are for early night in

Fridays are for early night in
When you've reached your thirties,
not a worry in the world that you're alone,
or you're not, unlike the rest, having fun,
not a concern of the sounds of joys and cries,
of the drunken crowds returning home
from their latenight reveries
for you know, by this time,
all that matters is one's peace and calm
and a Friday night that's easy on the body and the heart,
no commitments, no fear, nothing on the calendar,
short quick dinner and a goshdarned good book to read
that's all one does need to make the soul feed,
with cheer and joy, full of satisfaction,
until one's eyes grow heavy with sleep
and seven hours later one does get awake
in the living room, having slept through the late evening
but unsatisfied with that, one does go back to bed,
Until ten am of Saturday,
rich with rest, not a bother in one's heart,
welcoming the weekend with a fresh start,
no hangover, no tiredness, strong in mind and body,
a fulfilling weekend will be had.
