What do you do on weekends?
I sleep, sleep and sleep
Breaking the routines of the weekdays

No early morning tea, it is brunch
No early morning dressing up for office
It is crumpled, comfortable, cotton wears

The afternoons are lazy dreamtimes
Listening to the little birds talking
Watching the sun filter through the canopy

Getting to know the house again
Visiting corners not seen during the weekdays
Opening cupboards to rediscover things

Each weekend, I fall in love with my house again
It talks to me in many languages
Through shifting sunlight, soft winds, mild fragrances
