Willoughby (Inspired by the Twilight Zone episode)

Willoughby  (Inspired by the Twilight Zone episode)

A place where a man
Can live life in full measure
Seldom indulging
The simplest of pleasures
Where harmony fuses
With simple delight
Where paradise blossoms
The finest of sights
No 9-5 rat race
Bringing you down
Just sprinklers and pixie sticks
Platinum plate crowns
Settlers, peddlers
Meddlers too
Who break and then fix
Even better than new
So stay for a while
Be pleasantly ill
Smile and smile
Till happiness kills
