This day

This day, one year ago
Just so you know
Had open heart surgery done
Seems I won
Get to see another day 
Traveling along my way
Hearing some song
Standing strong
Music is just emotions having their say
In your head they sometimes play
A teardrop doesn't always mean im sad
At times it means I'm glad
So much yet to do
Hope my heart still beat true
Be thankful for each new day
Showing it in some simple way
Gives my heart a lift
Life is such a gift

Hello William, Life is a gift. Writing is too. As plain as the nose on my face, you have both. Merry Christmas to you this day. -Richard
