My Life in a Nutshell Through Poetry

Thank goodness it’s Friday

By Sadie ColucciPublished 5 years ago 1 min read
I may be busy but I’m LUCKY

Today is Friday

Thank goodness for that

That means I'm off tomorrow

And I get to see my niece Alex

The cutest 3 year old

She makes my heart smile

I look forward to Saturdays

I only have to drive a mile

Wish I was off 2 days a week

Instead of one

Unfortunately, working in my field

A lot of work has to be done

When you love work, it isn’t work

Autism doesn't turn on and off

Like a tv

The kids that I work with

Love and need me

I'm fortunate to have chosen my field

I wouldn't change it for anything

Being a job coach for autistic adults

Has changed my life more than anything

Working with my children on the spectrum on Sundays

Is the best part of what I do

Watching the children grow and progress

Is such an honor for me to do

I have a busy life

But I manage my time wisely

I like keeping busy

And definitely being timely

Children playing while socializing

Night time is me time

And that's when I write my poems

It gives me satisfaction

And calms and enriches my soul

On occasion, I go out to spend time with friends

And get some frustrations out

Otherwise I get lucky

And get on instagram and bug my friend Nicole the heck out

I truly have a wonderful life

I couldn't ask for anything more

I have the best wife, best family and friends

What more can a woman ask for.

Nighttime is my serenity to write ✍️
