The Place of Laziness My holiday home, Has a smile at the gate That welcomes you without hurry, Always with key in hand. It has neither luxuries nor stars, But it has an innovation, Peace, love and affection, From all the population. Here in the place of laziness, Time is no condition, The waters of the river Lethes Enchant our hearts. Here in the place of Laziness We forget sadness and loneliness, We embrace nature, Hold our breath. Here in the place of laziness Magic can't be seen You feel it inside you Don't ask me why Whoever visits this place Carries it with them in their mind Becomes part of you It stays with you forever. If you like nature Of rest and peace Find in my house A space that satisfies. Our aim is people, All in particular, Let each one enjoy Of this wonderful place.
