Just out of Reach

 

Here’s to the things

always just out of reach,

a Harvard degree

or a house at the beach,

 

Six winning numbers

A souffle that won’t sink,

A Mother-in-law

who won’t drive me to drink,

 

A boss who don’t care

about a past that is checkered

A judge who’ll expunge

my entire record,

 

A flight on a plane

with leg-room not thin

where knees are not pressed

up under my chin.

 

A Blog where each word

is spelled as it should

on a scale up to ten

I’d get a GOOD.
