American got up this morning. / Tis a day like the rest. / Sunny or rainy / each day is the best. / Just the fact I awake, / each bright early morn. / Lightens my heart, / and puts me in good form / It’s not like my life’s empty / with nothing to do. / So the weather don’t matter. / Let me give you that clue. / I work inside if rainy, / and outside if bright. / It is only deep cold. / That can get me up tight. / Summer is here. / I’m so happy you see. / I strut around, / In jeans and a “T” / I ride my scooter / where ever I go. / I don’t need my car. / If it’s warm out you know. / So my life is now / Quite full of grace / I have my health, / and my own little place / I grow most of my food. / I know how to cook. / Maybe some day / they’ll put my words in a book / What more can one ask for / in this world which we live? / Other than when / will we all learn how to give. / Rew 7/7/04
