I'm Happy Today

I'm happy, today.

The punctuation seems to be in the right places.

I'm only melancholly from loving too many places...

..and people, as it were.

 

I'm happy today.

My suit of remedies, fits just right.

I even had a guest stay overnight...

..I'll clean up, later.

 

I'm happy today.

My day of football doesn't exist,

I haven't a winner on the list...

..but I'll get 'em next time.

 

I'm happy today.

The "grand scheme" points towards a "plus",

and there's enough for the rest of us...

..lick your plate-clean.

Days like these are hard to come by.

Everything simple together ...

nothing overwhelmingly phenomonal by its self but collectivly That always seems to resonate longer then even serindipity. five ok things instead of one surprise. A poem with that takes me just so far of the ground as to be comfortable. lick your plate clean... In ink, Dabbler
