Poem - Bills
Bills
I was trying to pay some bills.
I logged into my accounts
and I got chills
when
all of the accounts
said no money owed
as if a secret benefactor
logged in and paid
so that my bill payments
will not be delayed.
I jumped up
to do a jig
and I thanked God
for the new gig
that will
allow me to pay
the bills next month
but the mystery
still remained.
What happened
with the bills
this month?
Was there just
a kink in the system?
Online bill payments
are usually
pretty seamless
so what’s up?
I never found
out for sure
exactly what
was going on
but seeing
the phrase
“No money owed”
this month
was amazing.
I am confused
but not forlorn.
We have all got bills.
Good luck with
paying yours.
Have you ever
seen
“no money owed”
and it was unexpected?
If so, I’m sure
that it gave you
a great feeling
and you stopped
feeling so dejected
that it was
time to pay
the bills.

That would be a wonderful surprise to find out that your bills had been paid. There truly are some people as well as organizations that occasionally do that. Sometimes that has been featured on television as a good news story.
