(for the Professor)

I am stuck today!
between a whine and a wine
and tiny sweet rosebuds
amid some stinky roseybutts
~but still~
I smile simply
because

I am alive.

Haven't you ever had one of those days?
When it mattered not what the day brought?
When you were just happy to be a part of it?

And as I find myself stuck today
between wine and a whine,
I am happy.

And even though I know
this is not exactly good poetry,
I still ask,
does it make you smile, feel good?

Have a great week.

"And as I find myself stuck today
between wine and a whine,
I am happy."

The giddiness of wine cannot be felt, if there never is a whine time to compare it with...

The two sides of the same coin...

Odd is, that when I feel that the day is extra good, I recall a First Nation saying...

"It's a good day to die"

Thats when I feel extra good...it has nothing to do with hating life, as some might think...But with loving it beyond human feeling..


Yes, this poem makes me smile and feel good....

Thank you, Kacy

When you were just happy to be a part of it?

yes indeed, a stunning sense of freedom
of life in it's perfection...

You've captured that moment, most rare indeed



I loved this
