It’s time for our family get-away
not a cottage but a week up in Boyne.
A resort here in upper Michigan
far away from the chaos and noise.
Pack the car with food, masks, and goodies
and a bottle of iced coffee for me.
As we head for heat or comfy weather
no hurry for soon we shall see.
Oh, the memories we gather each summer
some strang, some special you know.
As we zoom on the freeway together
racing up there who’ll be the first one to show!
