Here is my poem for next week. I’ll also attach a Word document.

 

Have it Your Day

 

Have it Your day.
Have it nice.
Have a long day, a short day, 
or an in between day.

 

Have a BURGER KING®
forgot to hold the lettuce day.
Have a bad hair day, 
a broke the mirror so now you’ll have seven years of bad luck day, 
or a day of over sleeping.

 

Have a late for class on the day of a final exam, 
can’t remember the subject, instructor, or room number, 
racing through the halls naked dream, but it’s for real day.

 

Have a day you wish was anybody’s but yours.
Have a “they’re coming to take me away ha-ha,” 
primal scream, “Calgon take me away” day.
A house landed on your sister and
“I’ll get you and your little dog too day.”

 

Have a “there’s no place like home,”
cookies and hot chocolate after a snowball fight day, 
or a day at the beach.

 

Have a déjà vous.
Have a missed the winning ticket by one number or
missed being side swiped by a semi by half a second day.

 

Have a play hooky for no reason, with no plans, 
favorite song stuck in your head, waking up laughing day.
Have a day of small miracles or big disasters.

 

Hey! It’s your day.
Allow yourself to have a bad day, or
to be in a bad mood on a good day.
Have a so-so day, an overwhelmed day, or
an uneventful, unforgettable day.
Have the best day ever without a life changing event.
Have a day that’s yours to remember
just because.
