A Happy Life

Kumbaya my Lord
my favorite prayer
when I was a boy
always eased my soul
in times of troubles

young adulthood
my love of sports
kept me going
a fan of Yaz

left fielder
of Red Sox
many years

today
happy

smile

Thank you Chris! Through out my life people always told me I seem so happy. Even my wife calls me giggles.
