I look forward to the time ,
When I can feel the sun on my back.
And greet a dear friend,
Without any flack .
I want to wander the streets,
With nary a care.
I want to hug a stranger,
Put my hands in their hair.
I want to smile with my mouth,
So, everyone can see.
I want to eat in a restaurant,
Where people can be.
Travelling the world,
Would be on my list.
Or simply the next town,
These things I have missed.
I know it’s not possible,
To break all the rules.
They are there for a reason,
The Breakers are fools.
So, with patience I’ll wait,
For this time to be done.
Then we will be free,
To walk in the sun.
Impatiently waiting with you.

Maybe we can change the phrase and slightly change the meaning. Instead of ‘keep your shirt on!’ We can make it ‘keep your smile on !’

Perhaps we need to have it taken away in order to fully appreciate it.

It really is. I was kind of holding off because I know there are a lot of folks in greater need, but then I decided, I can’t reserve a spot and hand it over to someone, so I may as well just reserve a spot and use it!
