Something's not Right...
By Melody Beerbower, Oct. 21, 2013
Why isn't the world rejoicing?
Why isn't the sun wearing it's finest glow?
Why is everyone simply about their business?
Why is it they don't know?
Can't they fell the happiness?
Can't they feel the delight?
Can't they sense the rumbling excitement?
Can't they see the light?
How can the day go on
With it's normal ebb and flow?
Shouldn't there be banners--a band!--
A parade, at least something grand to show
That an exciting thing has happened.
Something that doesn't happen everyday.
I thought all the love in the air
Would surely give it away!
But the day keeps crawling by.
No trumpets.
No fanfare.
No parties staged.
Nope.
No one's seemed to notice
That my sister and her sweetheart
Have finally been engaged.
