The Glasses


For those that know me,
I keep a clean and organized home.
Most times it is a joy to clean
But some days I want to quit being the maid,
the cook, the chauffeur, and garbage man.
Also the window washer, drycleaner, and gardener.
Not to mention a walking computer notepad,
and a live in doctor/ nurse,
All in all this finely tuned woman
is Wonder Woman
So when I got the following e mail today:
I had what is called
an "epiphany"
A moment of heightened awareness,
And at that precise time
everything became crystal clear
And here is how the e mail read

Everything is Beautiful
I look in the mirror,
my face
Isn't wrinkled or drawn.
My house isn't dirty.
The cobwebs are gone.
My garden looks lovely
And so does my lawn.
I think I might never

Put my glasses back on!

AND SO WHEN YOU COME TO VISIT MY HOME
WONDER WOMAN NO LONGER LIVES HERE
ALONG SIDE OF THE NO SMOKING SIGN
A NEW SIGN IS HANGING
"PLEASE LEAVE GLASSES AT DOOR"
