A Puff From the Past

Exhaling a sweet smooth smoke from the past Something I had forgotten even still last Wondering which direction this life is taking me And what next surprise will it be that I see Will I just sit and do nothing at all Or head for the things that as I pass call Remember there's nothing I really can't do Reading a book can always help too Or maybe take the pole on out into the lake To get knee deep 1/2 way across it would take Need to fill up this idle time And there's plenty of project that are all mine But now not being rushed or not expected to work We've sat on our ass and been kind of a jerk So tomorrow she needs to tag along Maybe we'll surprise her with lunch and Sorry I was wrong My friend I can see the picture just as I write She'll say for today or every single night Then smile and blow me a little kiss With out her life wouldn't be near as smooth as this!
