The Wonderful Lightness
Of Nothing
Nothing is on, nowhere to go
What have I done today, nothing to show
Am I just lazy, am I a slob?
Sat on the sofa a scruffy old blob
Days like today when there’s nothing to do
Can happen to anyone, both me and you
But is it a bad thing to have days like this?
The odd day of nothing I’m sure I would miss
And lazing about for the odd time or two
May just be enriching and may well help you
The world can be busy with no time to stare
And we can miss out on the beauty that’s there
And rest is important and something we need
So if you are tired just try to take heed
It’s telling you something and you should make sure
That you don’t get too stressed and worn out some more
And if you like a nap there is no wrong in that
Just lay down and rest and be more like your cat
So those days of nothing enjoy them and rest
A day of just lounging, not put to the test
