He sat at his work desk
All gloomy and blue
Cause nothing seemed to go his way
And he didn’t know what to do
It all seemed so normal
Since Work From Home Began
He longed to be anywhere but behind his desk
When low and behold he heard a sound
That left him quite stunned
A whistling tune
that was melodious to the ears
He looked high
He looked low
He searched for it here and there
For that whistling sound
Felt like it was calling to him
To follow it somewhere
He looked at others to see if they heard
But that sweet whistling sound
was only for his ears
So he put on his shoes
And followed it on
Cause that sweet whistling sound
Had hypnotised him somehow
So ran in the direction
He thought it came
He followed it high and he followed
He followed it for miles
But he couldn’t find
where the whistling came from
Till he came to a park
Where he felt most at home
As he ran through the park
He realised the whistling came from the trees
From the rustling of their leaves
That swayed in the breeze
The deer peered
And the monkeys stared
He didn’t really cared
Like the mice following the piper
He followed the whistling tune
And he followed the tune
He forgot his cares
And felt light as a feather
He ran through the woods
Whistling the tune that he heard
Then the whistling led him back
To the place it all started
And just as he heard it
In the same way it ended
But Leaving him
refreshed, rejuvenated and joyous!
