I wish you a sick day so that you can
stay in bed
with your chicken soup with rice
and your soda
and remember
what it was
like when you were small
just a girl in
your bed
all cozy and
loved
I wish you snow
day so you can remember
the joy of
smoothing a snow angel
you were
certain the angels approved of
(and you were
right)
I wish you a
rainy day
so that you can
recall
the joy of splashing
puddles in your rain boots
I wish you a
day that you never forget
because God
dwelt in you
