A Happy Poem for Robin's Birthhday

Today, Saturday, is Robin's birthday. I know she will understand this poem, written at shared times and when another friend challenged me to write a happy poem and get on with it!
Robin is going to have a good year.
Isn't that a great way to start?
I changed one word of this poem in honor of this auspcious day.

If I were to write a happy poem
Who I wonder would wish to comb
Through my words and find themselves
Dancing with me like little elves?

Is determination all I need
To fill nourish and sometimes feed
The ghosts that prey upon my feet
Scaring me with tales complete

Of mean and nasty lima beans
Friends who don’t do what they mean?
Those who play at giving thanks
Without a thought to broken banks?

I have good accounts with full deposits
No miserable skeletons in my own closets.
So why the need to understand
When someone chooses not to land

In territory real and true
Why not turn the other shoe
And kick my heels toward better times
Where loving folks wait in the vines?

Where there is play and micron pens
No blemishes there from start to end.
I have enough, god knows I do
So why not look at what is true?

I can bless the rest,
I can pass the test.
I can look beyond
The saddest song.

It had the words but lacked the tune
It’s time to wander elsewhere soon
I’m moving to where life is rich

And there’s no room for stitch or bitch!
