Driving On a Day Off During the Week

driving on a day off during the week
to a park that is unusually uncrowded
waterfront with a man lunch and a man
size drink
i am also off the next day and that makes
me smile even more
the only missing part is my working significant 
other
i pull up a song called ebony and ivory on my 
phone and cool out on this nice fall day
the sun is taking a break, but so is the rain
the only other person here is now leaving and
i am all by myself
instead of wishing for more days like this,
i thank God the the Beautiful Blessing of This One
there are those who are not healthy enough to feel this feeling
therefore i rejoice in the depths of the Gift of The Ability To Do So
for one day it could be me
