Just Another Day…(Or Not?) 🎂
Eighty-four!
What more to ask for!
Oh yes! Just to be alive
The day that I reach eighty-five!
I must admit
I ought to be a bit
More grateful.
Truth to tell,
I feel happy, peaceful, well!
Not just that,
But loved by those
Who have the least and most
Part in my days.
A sample: propped up lazily
in bed,
Eating scrambled eggs and toasty bread,
Coffee, honey…
Brought to me on wicker tray.
What a way to start the day!
So to you I’ve never seen
Except on Facebook’s sunny screen;
To friends who live both near and far,
Etcetera, etcetera…
Have a ‘Happy’ back to you!
Happy day and year you also!
Make each common day a hallowed!
In the end, and humbly,
Have a HAPPY BIRTHDAY me!🙏
