I know what I must do every dayA Poem by Aldo KraaThat is a new poem Written by Aldo kraas
I know what I must do every day
Keep my body clean and my fears at bay Brush my teeth like it's a holy rite And hit the pillow by nine each night I'm not a rich man No cash to show But my heart's a garden where love can grow Middle class man with a middle class crew We live small lives But our skies stay blue My pockets are empty My spirit's not I drink from the well of what I've got My dreams don't sparkle They're made of clay But they shine in the sun of an honest day I’m no king No crown to wear But I’ve got peace and a rocking chair I'm not a rich man No cash to show But my heart's a garden where love can grow Middle class man with a middle class crew We live small lives But our skies stay blue Some call me boring Some call me plain But I dance in the drizzle I sing in the rain No golden castles No velvet throne Just a quiet kingdom I call my own © 2025 Aldo Kraa |
