A Deep Breath

Malcolm De Chazal said,
“The flower in the vase smiles,
but no longer laughs.”

I am still laughing.
Doctor says I’ll live.
Great workout.
The construction crew
from Dewey, Cheatum & Howe
took the day off.

So, I breathed again
sanity & quiet,
except for the dogs barking
& loud rock music.

Took a deep breath.
