You’re A Wonderful Life
Indeed you are
You’re a wonderful life
Yes you are
Like a shining star
In the solar system
But you were rarely told
Your plot hasn’t fold
Like it should
For you and me to see
How our lives had meaning
To other stars in our orbit
Whose light and pull blind us of our own
Those who were happy to have known…us
We must be reminded
When we’re in this headspace
That we have a place
At the table of life
And the delicious food
Is for you… too
The 1946 American Christmas movie, ‘It’s A Wonderful Life’ inspired this poem.
I remember this movie would come on the NBC channel every year around Christmas when I was a kid (it may still come on TV). When it came on, I would always watch the beginning of the movie and then wander off to do something else, like play with my toys, play video games, sing Christmas songs with my family, etc.
