What Keeps me Excited Every Day
I have joy in my heart daily now
Living on a farm, that could house a cow
A cow has not wandered by, but I have three dogs
There is room for sheep, and a couple of pot belly hogs
My husband knows that in order to keep me around
He has to let me have pets; their presence keeps me sound
I also bring home flowers, bushes, vegetables and trees.
It is a joy to plant them in the summer breeze.
I am an artist, and must paint every day to stay up.
Lying on all three sides of my chair is a sleeping pup.
I paint cartoons that are fun in every way to me.
Nothing keeps me as fresh as a new fantasy
I cartoon dragons, castles, faeries, and pirate queens of the sea.
There are fifteen hundred canvases, painted by only me.
I also love to write, and toss down ten poems onto a page every day.
These things are what keep me enthusiastic in a cheerful way!
