It’s September, and Boomers Have Reasons to Smile

Posted: September, 2, 2022 | Categories: Poems

 

A Windsong Original poem

 

Fresh-brewed coffee in a great big mug

Its scent envelops me like an aromatic hug

The sunrise through the windows gives my heart a tug

I have so many reasons to smile.

 

Wide, welcoming courtyard entices me outside

Blooms on every one of the new plants I’ve tried

I take in their beauty and happily sigh

I have so many reasons to smile.

 

On the front porch I sit after my morning walk

Friendly neighbors wave, and stop for a talk

Visits so pleasant we don’t watch the clock

I have so many reasons to smile.

 

Day-trips are easy; the highway is close

As are restaurants and shops, where everyone goes

Landscaping maintenance is done by the pros

I have so many reasons to smile.

 

Inside my house, luxury abounds

I’m close to my neighbors but don’t hear a sound

What a treasure this is, my dream home I’ve found

I have so many reasons to smile.

 

In summer, I enjoy inviting outdoor spaces

Alone, or with new friends and smiling faces

In winter, we enjoy elegant gas-log fireplaces

Oh, so many reasons to smile.

 

Quality homes, home-sweet-home neighborhoods

I feel more peaceful than I ever thought I could

In this place full of smiles, living life with ease
