A Grinning Idiot

What makes me happy?

A Wrinkle in Time

a stitch to save nine

her hand in mine

and seasons

Playing games with the boys

my daughter's 'Mom' voice

making way too much noise

and pizza

Putting toes over lines

trading nickels for dimes

gently losing my mind

and freedom

Choosing help over hurt

going late into work

wearing cheesy 'Dad' shirts

and re-runs

Singing songs in the dark

walking barefoot through parks

stealing that woman's heart

and reading

Doing right and not wrong

knowing words to this song

smacking King to be Kong

are reasons
