hum a tune

a year of indecision
a year of collisions
clearing the plate
making space
where debris was housed
somehow
waking today
without a shadow
following behind
clapping hands
stomping feet
in joy
in release


beating the odds
without placing a bet
not losing sleep or sweat
for the mental pill you took
changed the attitude
you don’t have to be spiritual
but you do have to believe
for there is
someone looking after you
they quietly watch
poke & prod
pointing the way
indiscreetly ………. not always

 

you thought
this slump was never ending
just took a little longer
to find the bend
the road does twist & turn
lighten up
unpack your duffle
easier to forge ahead
with baggage left behind
lighten up
leave yesterday’s troubles

 

hum a tune
i’ll find 1 for you


“Ob-la-di, ob-la-da life goes on
La la La la La la life goes on”
