Words In My Pocket

With my back to the sun
and words in my pocket
nothing on the agenda
no names on the docket.

I don't need my shoes today
I want the sand between my toes
I want the ocean at my ankles
a heaven only an angel knows.

I'm not worrying about anything
won't fret over past mistakes
today, a day I will love myself
and stand unshaken in the wakes.

The whole world can fall down around me
the wolf can come knockin' at my door
I'll dance, with no thought to stance
I'll laugh, at being monetarily poor
I'm alive; that's worth rejoicing for.

With my back to the sun
and spirits high as a rocket
my road will be smooth today
enough to barefoot-walk-it
I'll set my heart out on my sleeve
and carry words in my pocket

so I can pull them out for you
to lay here on these pages blue.

Loved it.
