I love being the unsolicited guest to
my own gala where I can dust off
off my sweeter emotions wear
a rented moment for an entire evening
and leave with a hangover of full-blown joy
Gratitude is usually a party for one
thrown together impulsively and anywhere
though it can get out of hand and appear
to others as drunkenly loud and foolish
But hey give ‘em a break
This celebration of life
sometimes happens
only once in a lifetime
