Taking One Bite Out Of My Day
It Is The Special Moments That Count
Putting all the pieces together to make it work
The alarm clock goes off
I quickly shut it off
Rolling back into bed
My wife saving the day
Talking to me
I suddenly realized I have to get up
I have to go to work
Eating blueberries with cereal seems like a simple thing to do
By the third bite the blueberries taste old
Like they were starting to turn bad
There is a taste about them
Almost like strawberries if they start to go moldy
They looked o.k.
Instead of throwing them out
I moved them around with a little more milk
To mask the taste
They won't kill me
I really love blueberries
Off to work soon
Not much new to say
I worked a long shift yesterday
I have put so many days under my belt
I am starting to look like Santa Claus
All of a sudden
I am running late
My wife reminds me no speeding
Half done but the best I can at this moment
Someday I will look back and laugh
Looking at these times as special and bright

Mona Sabalones Gonzalez Being happy trying to combine all the things in a day. A wonderful mix, we never get just right but it doesn't stop us from trying. Doing what we know and sometimes attempting what we don't. That is living on the wild side for me. Thank you so much for all your comments. I hope to keep you smiling even after your cheeks hurt. Have a nice Sunday.

Love this poem. It's true, it's the small things like cereal and being late that we will look back at and smile.
