This is a poem I really enjoy reading. I would have to give it 5 stars.
Not My Day- By Russel Hoban
I got up on the wrong side of the day
and came right off; it walked away
showing the whites of its eyes "Stop!"
I said, "I mean to get on the top
of you." It kept on going;
I followed, knowing
days don't always do
exactly what you'd like them to
"Stand still" I said "I'm going to try again"
I thought I heard it neigh a little,then
it kept on walking while I stood there talking
'All right' I said, (it sounded like a threat)
'I'll see you later' But I haven't yet.
I love it! How about you?
