It Is Such a Happy Day
Joyously she plans her day
Her oven is preheating.
She has all of her ingredients out.
Her to-do-list is miles long
But she is glad, humming as she works.
She has six places to be, and a luncheon with friends.
A wonderful day! She can hear the birds singing.
The dog and cat are snuggled on the couch.
It is such a happy day!
One phone call changes everything.
She turns off the oven
Unplugs the iron.
Unplugs her cell phone.
Throws her credit card in her purse.
Grabs her headset.
Changes her clothes.
Puts five dollars in her pocket
And heads for the hospital.
