So Lucky
I’m so lucky to live near the Met,*
Where the art is as good as you’ll get
Anyplace you may go
And with every new show
I am grateful to be in its debt.
If I visit along with a friend,
Then it’s certain that I can depend
On whatever we see,
Both for her and for me,
To be worth all the time we will spend.
Such an outing just happened today,
Though my friend went way out of her way,
But we so much enjoyed
What we viewed and left buoyed
By such wonderful art on display.
