My Best Wishes to You


There is a knock at my door,
figuratively speaking, of course.
For you could be somewhere else
a distance away.

A phone call, perhaps, you may
have made asking if I can come
out and play?

I am of an age when every day is a
snow day, but unfortunately, those
adventurous childhood days of sled-
ding and snowman creating have
long since passed for me.

I now have the time and a presence
of mind for fun and games, but find
myself shackled to some limiting
physical liabilities. And I sincerely
hope that you will understand.

On these gray and chilling days of
my old age, sometimes all I can man-
age to do is to send my best and
warmest wishes to you.

Sometimes the best laid plans are
left to the heartfelt expressions of
those little things we’re still able
to do.
