Make the Best With What You Have

Can't do vacations...
money is real tight...
too old for travel...
youth has taken flight !

We do "staycations"...
here is what we do:
watch TV and chat...
crossword puzzles too !

It may seem dull
but it's really not...
we're just happy
with what we have got !

Enough to get by...
roof above our heads
and at evening's call,
our own warm beds !

Who can argue with that, Donna! We can find pleasure in simple things, like curling up on the couch and writing a poem. Blessings, Darlene
