Good Day

Hey,
I hope you’re having a good day.
What is a good day?
A good day is the first steps you take
In a new pair of sneakers
(and extra good if you have new socks!)
A good day is making someone laugh out loud
Who has been locked up in a prison of pain.
A good day is seeing a kid
Make baby steps of success.
A good day is feeling the warm sun on your cheek
On a cold January day.
A good day is catching a golden leaf
That a maple tree has dropped to you.

A good day is
Finding your keys
A warm cookie
A wink and a nod.

A good day my friend
Is waiting for you.

A Good Day

The definition of a good day
Is pretty wide open.
Don’t ask for too much,
Perhaps some sunshine
And the whiff of a gardenia…
Don’t expect too much,
As it may lead to disappointment
Self-created.  That’s a long road.

Any good day above ground
I am reminded…
The rest is gravy,
Frosting on the cake.
Clearly we have been offered such
Sage advice.

I’ll take the song of a bird nearby
And the thought of seeing your smile,
The rest is pretty wide open.
