LIGHT AND SASSY
He feels pretty good today,
He managed sufficient sleep…
And made his way to work anon
Having done promises he could keep.
–
He woke up early with time to write
A light-hearted missive or two…
He got to smile at his “favorite girl”
And joke with the secretary, too.
–
He literally saluted
With a brandish of mouth trombone…
Friends who were coming into work
And those just leaving for home.
–
His vacation-time form was faxed by the boss,
Eventually money will come…
To tide him over til he gets back
From a week of Christmas at home.
