If I spent even one nanosecond thinking about how my life could be better, I would be damn greedy.

A Polished Feeling

By Scott D. Zachary

The farm is decked out like a million-dollar course
Just waiting for the purview of our horses

The shop’s organized and the tractor’s tuned
Flowers planted and 47 acres festooned

Eye-catching flower boxes like those in Vail
Inviting the butterflies to flitter and hail

Got a fresh rain to help fill our newly-built pond
The other is decorated with beautiful fronds

The garden is harvested, the pantries filled
Including my favorite sun pickles—I’m thrilled

A custom-built home to share with the love of my life
I call her my best friend, my lover and my gorgeous wife

My honey bunny often expresses her gratefulness
Which makes me feel all the more blessed

Paid every single bill with oodles left for me
Just a hop and a skip from totally debt-free

Plenty left over to share with those in dire need
Especially for the ones who wouldn’t otherwise feed

Our wonderful nine children are doing well
Which makes my heart patter and swell

Lots of friends to give my heart warmth and delight
It’s been years since I had an argument or fight

My clients are happy; business is doing well
Their systems are performing like a shiny bell

Heck, I even cleaned my desk—partly anyway
The first time since anyone could possibly say

But most importantly
The Lord is with me

Happy to be one of those friends on this end & didn't know you were thinking of having horses...? Ought to talk to Rene' first or have us out to go horse shopping with you as she knows them quite well...(when you first spoke of polishing, I thought maybe you polished off a keg or a case of Corona, LOL!) Find peace in your beliefs, Ed, Rufuz and Rene
