Almost Giddy
This is me being happy today
at the end of the work-week from hell.
I must say as preamble, hey,
I get rules and will follow, I wanna place well.
I'm happy no one that I know died today.
I'm happy I still know how to crochet.
I'm happy my uncle's heart surgery went fine.
I'm happy to relinquish stuff that's not mine.
I'm happy my central heat's working as oughta.
I'm happy I heard this week from my chill daughter
I'm happy my son with his head in the clouds
is making decisions that make himself proud.
I'm happy it's weekend.
I know how to freak into
joyously seekin'
what's best for us all
makes me happy.
