I had a whole Monday off
yesterday.
I read a book.
I had a light workout.
I changed the filter.
I wrote for hours.
I cheered for my team.
I baked some bread.
I played a game.
I supported my wife.
I felt the need
today
to celebrate
yesterday
when most of my writing
lately
has been complaining
about this and that.
I even started my day
in a bad mood,
but managed
to turn it around.
Three day weekends
for sanity.
I can’t wait
to retire.
I’ve heard that
some people
lose their meaning
in retirement.
I can’t imagine
a life
where I’m bored-
I have too much life to live
and not enough time for it.
Haven’t these people
seen a library
before?
I suppose it is more difficult
when you don’t worship
letters.
But still-
there’s something
for everyone.
