Please don’t get me flowers
Or jewelry
Or anything that fits in a
Wrapped ribboned box
The things I yearn for are
In the air
In my nerves
In my heart
I yearn for a day of no decisions
Little responsibility
Few tasks
No worries pulling my shoulders down
I want a day
Where events flow with ease
A day of music
And laughing
Sunshine would be lovely
Though not necessary
Lightness in all our hearts
I’m hoping for giving and sharing
And gracious receiving
Tasting
Sipping
Dancing
And more dancing
