“Pick up the bags, it’s time to go”,
The clock strikes six and tells me so.
I look in the mirror and hear it say,
Wish I stayed another day.

A mental note of Things to do,
Flush my mind and take me through.
Pending tasks, spread as hay,
Wish I stayed another day.

Banks and cards and loans and bills,
Undone signs on deeds and wills.
Fees and rents I could not pay,
Wish I stayed another day.

I call for sonny to help me pack,
He gets the shoes and brush from rack.
With silent words, he blocks my way,
Wish I stayed another day.

A visit to zoo, a splash in pool,
A surprise pick from gate of school.
“You promised me!” his tears say,
Wish I stayed another day.

The lady I love is packing my meal,
With tender hands and a heart of steel.
Where hundred pains and problems lay,
Wish I stayed another day.

I hold her near and then realise,
I didn’t even hug her once or twice.
She smiles at me with nothing to say,
Wish I stayed another day.

Unsaid words and unsung tales,
Compliments, wishes, cards and mails.
All change hands in a mystic way,
Wish I stayed another day.

Dad is mute and strong as ever,
Speak of his fears, he will never.
Hiding his tears by gazing away,
Wish I stayed another day.

His pair of specs and bottle of rum,
I promise to get, next time I come.
He smiles the way I've seen him grey,
Wish I stayed another day.

On my post in chill and ice,
Tired and spent I close my eyes.
Faces from home appear to say,
Wish you stayed another day.

Our good wishes of Xmas & New Year
also go to all those, who could not stay another day.
