Sometimes a Good Thing

Martha Stewart, eat your heart out,
Always telling me about the simple,
Finer things in life that make it
Just a little more enjoyable,

A little less deplorable and
Self-fulfilling if my mind and
Hands are willing to find the
Slightest bit of creativity employable.

No more waiting in the wings
To be a players' understudy,
No more watching QVC to
Order someone else's craft,

I am out to make my own,
Claim my prize in a lover's game,
Striking out like Tom and Huck to
Float down stream on a hand-made raft.

What bold adventure, this journey called love,
To fly up to Heaven on gossamer wings.
Martha, my dear, you can't build love by hand,
But sometimes it truly is a good thing.
