Lovely Upside Down

by Debra White

 

Today the world is lovely upside down,

far lovelier than from the right way up.

It's turned into a smile what was a frown

and happiness is flowing from my cup.

Perhaps I'll perch here 'til the sun goes down;

the wrong way round, tail feathers standing up.

I never guessed I'd see the day I'd find

such pleasure from the sun on my behind!

 




What made you feel happy today?!
