What a wonderful day I had had!
Met a new friend for coffee in the morning,
We sat and talked,
Talked of many things.
He had problems but spoke of them,
I just listened and it helped him.
I spoke of my wonderful life,
Especially my wonderful life with Joyce.
This all helped him feel that life would be good.
We left the coffee house as good friends,
With a friendship that will last.
In the afternoon I went to croquet,
Hitting the balls with abandon,
Two croquet friends with me.
We all hit some wonderful shots,
And some extremely bad ones,
But throughout the afternoon
There was humour and laughter,
Three of us enjoying this game,
Enjoying this game in joy and friendship.
Then came the finale.
I went to the cinema with a very good friend,
I bought some wine for us
We found our seats and sat and waited,
Waited for the film to start.
We had both seen the original film
But this was a new version,
A new version of West Side Story.
What a film!
I was drawn in from the start,
The acting singing and dancing captured me.
Such a wonderful film,
We left the cinema in raptures
Stunned by how good it was
Humming the songs from it,
Humming all the way home.
I arrived home,
Looked back on my day,
And knew in my heart and mind
What a wonderful day I had had.

Ohhh, a great day you had, no fear
My melodious tones of singing you did not hear
No time to listen to me
Which is like two cats fighting, you see -
So they say! heehee.
Hee, hee, hee Orchi.
