Cabin Fever


I've got cabin fever so locked up inside

I need to find a way to let it all hang loose

turn the music loud and do the electric slide

shake my arms and legs and even my caboose


sometimes the heart just needs some time

to work through the thoughts that bring pain

reaching inside to find yourself is not a crime

sometimes it's just so hard to see through the rain


but I have seen the sun peeking from behind

and his ray of smiles is helping me unfold

just like the sunflowers I sometimes find

waking from the winters chill and the freezing cold


a little bird whispered softly to my heart

saying you will be alright just keep the faith strong

and though that bird soars high she's still a part

cause when she comes to me she sings a loving song


so now I stand and stretch reaching for the stars

I'm searching for the magic button or lever

that will loose me from these confining bars

time to rise and shine and shake this cabin fever

Well now looks like you havent left us, glad to see you back. You know some people to to talk, some walk, some keep silent, and some read, some write. And you are one of those that need to write.
I really like this fun piece. It makes so much sense.
Hey, and when you find that magic button or lever let me know. Let me know how far I have to reach up in those stars, to loose me from my confining bars.
Anyway, glad to see you back, now dont ever leave us readers again like that.
Loved this Gomer as always

I understand this poem. Cabin fever is everywhere. I need to escape and run half naked outside and feel better. I like the logic in your words. Thank you for the hopeful and positive poem this morning.
