Woke Up This Morn

Woke up this morn
  At the crack of dawn
Hopped out of bed
  Had to get my day on

Opened the door
  Ran outside
All my neighbors
  Wore smiles so wide

So I smiled back
  And then I looked down
Seems I'd forgotten
  to put my clothes on

Looks like you woke up (early) this morn, or perhaps you hadn't gone to sleep yet, or perhaps the time (1:20 a.m.) reflects the time zone gap between us... Whatever... Glad you're smiling, Jenish! :) Gershon

a smile is better than laughter. A couple of admiring stares would be appreciated. *lol*
