Poem for her 589

Dear Readers,


The long monday


There it was on the calendar
Monday
There was that list of things to do
Longer than we liked
We like the short list days
Nap, lunch, walk, nap, dinner, cards
Okay yeah that is a long list too
Not like today though
A page and then some
You looked at me long
I looked at the list and said
We can slice off a few
Put them on wednesday
You smiled
Then we got ready
The rain was just about to start
The car was a short puddle hop away
Then the rain started
One less thing today
Mow another day

Happy Birthday Babe,

Charles.
