...so I did

 
it was a good day
to wake up after
a night without
nightmares

      ...so I did

it was a good day
to shower and wash
off the terror of
yesterday

    ...so I did

it was a good day
to go my favorite
coffee shop and
sit in my best chair

   ...so I did

it was a good day
to watch the faces
of people around
me a wonder about
the lives they lead

   ...so I did

it was a good day
to see the fist
monarch butterfly
of spring

  ...so I did

it was a good day
to tell someone I
love them

   ...so I did

it was a good day
to think about
having lunch

  ...so I did

it was a good day
to go to afternoon
Mass

  ...so I did

it was a good day
to work on my
yard a little bit

  ...so I did

it was a good day
to think that I
haven't scrubbed
my kitchen down
in a while

  ...so I did

it was a good day
to watch my favorite
indoor football team's
stream on YouTube

   ...so I did

it was a good day
to consider that
nothing last
forver and that
even flys make
love

   ...so I did

it was a good day
to realize that
nothing really ever
completely goes
away, it only  gets
rearranged into
God's patio furniture

   ...so i did

it was a good day
to lay my head down
on a pillow and
have these thoughts

   ...so I did

it was good day
not to die

   ...so I didn't

I hope tomorrow
is just as
good
