Sunday Morning

leave a comment »

It’s Sunday morning, and the precipitation has yet to start. A glance at the radar reveals it is not far off. We are experiencing a fair amount of wind, and the squirrels and birds seem to be putting in extra effort to consume every morsel in and around the feeders.

On my agenda is to lounge in the comfort of our warm home, and watch nature do its thing.

A quiet day.

a quiet day
to contemplate
take stock
count blessings
restore
revitalize
stretch and recoil
ponder
what is
what can be
visualize
possibilities
allow them
set them free

.

Feel free to join me, wherever this day has you being. Find your optimal health!

Craving

……try as I might
I am powerless to resist
the allure
…..the griddle
….some butter
…..gas flame
……bread
preferably homemade
………frying
..it doesn’t matter
what goes on top
melting cheese
crunchy peanut butter
– man, I love pbutter heated
. .all melty, yet crunchy –
….or best of all
cut a hole
remove the circle
fry that, too
..crack an egg
….drop it in
….bullseye!
dash of salt
course-ground black pepper
…..and I’m there
……all in
. . ready for seconds
before I’ve finished the first
. . . because it’s bread
. . . . buttered
. . .. . .and fried

how far
can you throw
personality
against winds
gusting
in gales
bursting forth
but never mind
ooh, something shiny
a key
that says
delete
