A Good Day

I dedicate this latest poem to my mom who lost a close friend, companion and pet over the weekend. I also dedicate my life to living day by day in the hopes of accepting the grieving process and moving on through divorce.

A Good Day



It was a good day,
a cold windy day,
but a work day.

It was a challenge day,
a flat tire on the car day,
a day in which bad news
about a sick pet
brings a tear to your eye,
but many fond memories to mind.

It was an opportunity day,
a phone call to a son day
and a day to thank God
for one more chance to get it right
even when others
won't give you that chance.

Yes, it was a good day,
to laugh,
to cry
and know that someone loves you
just the way you are,
today.
