Thinking about you, As I play the piano, Waiting for you to get back from the bagel store, I grin like a satisfied cat, Full of sweet cream, lovingly provided. Our church is being fumigated, And today will truly be a day of rejuvenation. The dog is yipping, The bird squawking, Alice is singing, I'm playing, All this is a mere pin drop Compared to the choral ensemble That sings your praises Whenever I whisper your name. Knowing your love shall return, With a bag full of bagels, And your singular spirit of loving, Is what makes my play, Makes Alice sing, Makes the bird squawk, Makes the dog yip, Makes me grin like a satisfied cat. That knows that it is loved.
