I'm Tired

Where is my joy

Oh boy

I am not a toy

Get up, get out of bed

I am not a sleepy head

~

What if I was a toy

A barbie doll oyy

Would I make it to the water

for ceremony with a granddaughter

No, I would not matter.

~

Being a grandparent

is better than being a parent

I say that regularly now

And holy cow

there is a bowwow

barking outside my window, wow

Time to get rolling

not down a hill but moving

~

Water ceremony was a beautiful

day at the river. A chill of 24, full

of sun and birds, no bull

After ceremony, at tea

a friend told me

when I was yawning that it is catchy

I already knew that. She was scratchy.

Arthritis she claimed, itchy

all night long. It is better than the pain

I luckily can't relate to the strain

of arthritis. Should I say yet

I wouldn't want to bet.

Yesterday I sat on a bench

for too d--n long, pardon my French

I have a sore bottom from that there

When will I learn to bring my chair

that I use for basketball, it really

does make all the difference nearly

every time. So suffering, and tired

glad I'm not out there hired

to train this week. I'm only expected

to be cheery on the weekend, not affected

by a sore bum. Have a good day today

I say, go out and play on this sunny day!
