Holidays


On Earth Day I chopped down a tree
On New Year’s Eve I thought about old times
On Valentines Day I went out to break hearts
On Independence Day I contemplated anarchy
On April Fools’ Day I woke up
On Groundhog Day I went back to sleep
On Veterans’ Day I seceded the Union
On Flag Day I shot bottle rockets at Old Glory
On Memorial Day I walked on heroes’ graves
On Halloween I dressed as myself
On Thanksgiving I admired my Native American side
On Presidents’ Day I chiseled faces off a mountain
On Labor Day I worked my fingers raw
On Christmas Day I sent a gift to myself
On my birthday I forgot my age
On Easter I waited for the dead to rise
But today I celebrate more than ever.
