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!
