Pretend today
Is one like every other day
Peaceful
Quiet
Joy filled
How else would you wish to spend your time than that?
What is it you look for
When you imagine the life you wish to lead?
What is it you hope for
For yourself
And those you love?
What are you willing to give up
To have that life you dream of?
Or is it a matter of giving up?
Lets take a day,
One day,
To have all the goodness we wish for
What harm could there be
In one day?
I can’t imagine there could be trouble there
Can you?
Now, how about one more
And another
Again
Endlessly onward
One glorious day at a time
We all need the promise of that
Don’t you agree?
Lets reach for that
And if we find
That only one in three of those days
Turns out to be worth remembering…
Couldn’t we celebrate that all the same?
I’d like to imagine we could
I’m going to hope for that,
Dear heart
I’m going to put my peas
In that pot
And start them cooking
