An Ode to You and the New Year

I wish I could say I wrote this but I didn't. It was written by another wonderful massage therapist who works in Arlington, Amanda Long. It says it all so well.

Thanks for being part of my world in 2013. I hope I can continue to bring massage to yours in 2014.

A New Year's Ode

What would I be without you?

A woman with table, tater tot thumbs and nothing to do?

Who would I text "I'm running a bit late"
Who would make me think daily, "Damn, this gig is great."

Who would give my elbows a place to land
Who would keep me from an office oh, so bland?

I need not ponder these inquiries,
For you've dutifully filled out your client histories.

Magic, you say, that's what I do
But you're the prize, really it's YOU

So thanks for the shoulders up to your ears
Thanks for tight hammies and keeping me out of arrears

Thanks for sharing your vino
and letting me actualize my dream-OH,

Holidays make the gratitude flow, wouldn't you know it
But, luckily, thanks to you, I'm not a paid poet!
