lift your chair

lift your chair
up
up 
up to the air
and spin
and laugh
hugging each other
in glee, with tears in our eyes
the small children running out the back door
laughing and pushing each other over
the dogs barking,
everyone kissing
joy filling everything
so lift your chair
dance a two-step
smell the coldness of wonder
and smile big, smile sweet, smile with all of the tastes of goodness around you
lift your chair.
