Sitting in the park.
Keeping the beat.
Feeling sorry for myself.

Planning my happiness.
Eating too much.
Planning my health.

Sleeping late.
Working puzzles in the night.
Dreaming strange dreams.

Hoping against hope.
Improving my chances.
Giving up.

People watching.
Longing for company.
Reminiscing.

Feeling my age.
Checking the mirror.
Playing old songs.

Reading the news.
Wishing for better.
Making no difference.

Eating chicken soup.
Playing solitaire.
Walking the mall.

Listening to birds.
Photographing flowers.
Mounting pictures.

Remembering the lake.
Where we fed the ducks.
And times were good.
