Why I choose not to sigh (Poem)




Wake up to the alarm
No time to snooze
Harried don’t sigh

The glorious morning
Through my French windows
Smiles don’t sigh

All leave on time
A day well begun
Satisfaction doesn’t sigh

Little peace and quiet
Some yoga time
Rejuvenation doesn’t sigh

On to the laptop
Smusing and composing
Busy don’t sigh

He’s back from school
How was your day?
Listener’s don’t sigh

Pick her up at the bus-stop
See her radiant face
Happy don’t sigh

Brother sister squabble
Break out into fist fights
Referee doesn’t sigh

My man comes home
My heart is happy
Love doesn’t sigh

Together at dinner time
Laughter, fun, conversations
Full heart doesn’t sigh

I have other emotions, so why?
Would I not let them fly?
Ten reasons why I choose not to sigh.
