A Good Day

I started the day strong —
with a little bit of self-love.

It was a good day.

Today I said I love you,
not simply because it was something to say —
but because I really do.

It was a good day.

When my son came home from school,
I sat with him
and asked,
and really listened.

It was a good day.

It had been a while since we spoke,
so I gave you a call.

It was a good day.

I put things in my body and my mind
that will nourish and heal.

I exercised.
Meditated.
Read.

I let my creative flowers bloom.

I savored the moments in between.

I decided to let my hair down
and clown around —
after I had put on my serious face
to get some work done.

I planted seeds for your future
and for mine.

It was a good day.

When this day reaches its conclusion,
I want to be able to reflect
with no regret.

Because I showed up authentically
and gave it my best.

If this were my last day,
I would be inclined to say —

It was a good day.
