Blues Happy
Got no money but got good luck
keeps me going when things get stuck
or broke or break or leak or lose
good luck beats betting on blues
though I bet on life times and such
seems to be working cuz I got right much
got wool slippers on feet from loving wife
wormhole tales of adventurous life
stocking cap that fits my head
easing me from cold of dread
words and images swarm in and out
seem happy to stop awhile hang out
art on walls, books on shelf
music seeping self to self
occasional toke to ease my mind
cowboy coffee to kick my behind
cat and couch and rug on floor
kinda greedy to ask for more
just glad the days pop along so strong
weaving word in deed and song
