Array ( [sid] => 588 [catid] => 1 [aid] => mick [title] => Polka Dots on Mondays [time] => 2002-07-17 06:47:33 [hometext] => (My sense of humor is warped, my smile often wide and I swerve to avoid hitting animals.
As for a description about this poem, not a whole lot to say. I don`t know that much about it. It followed me home one night, seems friendly enough, so I think I`ll leave it at Mick`s site, (the best site I`ve found for homeless poems).
Julie Andrews ROCKS.) [bodytext] =>

She`s wearing polka dots on Mondays,
when lately she`s just been wearing blue.
It seems like a month of Sundays,
since her worries were bid adieu.

She`s going back to the card store,
mostly to read the verses there.
She`s buying ice cream cones once more.
She`s breathing in the morning air.

She`s making calls, long overdue,
mending friendships that were ignored.
She feeds the monkeys at the zoo.
She looks at clothes she can`t afford.

She`s singing Julie Andrews songs
and buying flowers for herself.
She`s decided to fix some wrongs
and leave some grudges on the shelf.

Her life`s back on course, all rearranged.
Dread`s been replaced with gratitude.
The colors of her world have changed,
since she voved to change her attitude.

I agree with Chrissie. This poem rocks! Sounds like me after I finally got out of a relationship that should've been done years ago. (and yes, I know I'm only 17... but even young people make mistakes.) I LOVE your work... and it does seem really in tune with the stuff that I write... (like you said earlier). Talk to you at your next poem... :)
