Something Thoughtful


 I don’t need things

I have lots of bobbles and dust collectors

I don’t need food

There’s not a cookie or piece of chocolate

That can replace one on one conversation

I don’t need a verbal beat down

A list of what I’m doing wrong

I could use a shot or two of positive re-enforcement

Or maybe something thoughtful out of the blue

I don’t want another series to follow

And I don’t need any happy pills to make life easier to swallow

A bottle of wine or cup of coffee

With a soft shoulder and an open mind

Will help me feel loved and stand taller in my walk
