Sunday Morning: After The Worship Hour by Neicy Wiggins

Okay, breath slow
Relax my face
Don't smile too big
Breath slow
(You hypocitie! You fraud!)

It's okay...Calm down...I can do this
Don't talk too fast
Breath slow
(Liar! Cheat! Idolator! Just shut up!)

Go on now...This is my chance
Don't let your voice get too loud
Breath slow
(They don't want to talk to you! You're boring)

Step on up...Ease into the conversation
Don't laugh inappropriately
Breath slow
(You don't have anything to say to them. Get out now!)

This is not a hard thing...Just say hello
Don't talk about yourself too much
Breath slow
(You'll offend someone. You'll say something stupid.)
I know them...they've always been friendly
Don't ask a lot of questions
Breath slow
(Last warning. You won't have enough say. Go home!)

"Good Morning, Sisters. Pastor sure preached today didn't he?"
That wasn't too bad...they even smiled...gave me a hug
Don't be too long winded
Breath slow
(Now you did it. You have to figure out what to say next week.)

That was nice...good conversation...needed that fellowship
Don't end this awkwardly
Breath slow
(Don't trip when you walk away.)

"See you next week, Sisters!"
Okay, breath slow.
