Woke up this morning
feeling excellent,
picked up the telephone
dialed the number of
my equal opportunity employer
to inform him I will not
be into work today
Are you feeling sick?
the boss asked me
No Sir I replied:
I am feeling too good
to report to work today,
if I feel sick tomorrow
I will come in early.
PS
Today is the birthday
of one of my all time favorite
people and poets
Pedro Pietri. He liked
to celebrate his birthday
365 days a year.
He died a while ago
but he’s a person
who will be around forever.
Love it. Wish I knew him. Celebrating his outlook on life and your sweet poem.
