Another Wonderful Day Poem by Jim Yerman

Another Wonderful Day



Life is made up of wonderful moments….
Little moments that come our way…
that combine with other wonderful moments
to become a wonderful day!

Take yesterday for instance…the moment my feet hit the ground
everywhere I looked…wonderful moments….all around…

Deborah and I took a walk with a friend…early morning before the crowds.
We watched the sun rise over the water…painting colors on the clouds.

When we reached the pier…out in the water….under an ever-changing sky
A dolphin mommy and her baby…happily swimming by.

Deborah made a batch of shortbread for Rick, our nephew,
(as a baker she's well versed)
Still…no shortbread ever leaves our house
until I taste it first!

We rode in our golf cart to a restaurant
where we met Rick and of a wonderful lunch we partook…
We talked for hours and Rick gave us ‘A Day In The Life Of Marlon Bundo'
a wonderful Children's book.

These wonderful moments were but a few
of the ones that came our way.
Wonderful moments that combined together
to make yesterday a wonderful day…

If today we string more wonderful moments together…
I think it becomes quite clear
how one great day will turn into another…
and we'll end up with a wonderful year…

And if we're truly lucky,
our wonderful moments will outweigh any sorrowful moments of strife
and one great year will turn into another
and we'll end up with a wonderful life.
