Caren Krutsinger Poet Free verse

Sheer Happiness Aggravates the Naysayers

It is so peaceful today!
SHHHHHHH someone hisses.
You will ruin it.
But it really is a terrific day.
Three people give her a quick glare.
She laughs.
Not caring at all. 
Optimism cannot be squelched.
She is in a wonderful mood.
Begins to sing Oh What a Wonderful Morning!
Loudly and proudly.
The naysayers are instantly in a bad mood.
Go home with glaring faces.
Silly co-workers.
She smiles at how well she can aggravate them 
With sheer happiness.

Sandra Adams November 26, 2019 at 6:57 PM are we happy because all the children are off for the week and it's a peaceful less stressful day? i could see this one taking place... :) Caren Krutsinger November 27, 2019 at 2:48 AM We worked a mere two days this week. Everyone left school yesterday singing, because we have five days off! You are correct, this is a great week! Happy Thanksgiving!

Quoth Theraven November 26, 2019 at 10:06 AM Caren, I welcome the day in your song. 'Oh What a Wonderful Morning!' Gotta love Rodgers & Hammerstein. -Richard Caren Krutsinger November 27, 2019 at 2:50 AM I really do! It is so much a part of my life.

Chris Green November 26, 2019 at 8:57 AM Make perfect sense to me, I have seen this happen. Wonderfully expressed Caren. Caren Krutsinger November 27, 2019 at 2:50 AM Thank you Chris. Our attitude can pretty much make or break our day, so we have to be SO careful!
